The "Real" J. Dawson: Joseph, Not Jack
Manage episode 359912428 series 2981824
Join me as I uncover a LOT (truly, more than I anticipated!) about the man so commonly referred to as "the real Jack Dawson." He was J. Dawson, Titanic crew member, but he wasn't even named Jack. And his real story is human and beautiful and complex on its own. We should be grateful that the film's popularity eventually trickled down into research and illuminated so much about him, though, and culturally it's astounding what an impact the 1997 film had on Dawson's legacy.
To watch the Discovery Channel documentary I reference throughout this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YVfjVIlxBw&t=1139s
And to buy Senan Moloney's book, The Irish on Titanic is difficult....it's out of print, sadly. But here's a link to the Goodreads page for reference and a check through used bookstore websites mind yield a treasure?! https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/1955213
