The Japanese passenger who survived the Titanic but faced unbearable shaming at home

There was so much the Titanic got wrong but, yeah, blame the passenger who tried to survive it. The lifeboats weren’t filled to capacity so it’s not likely he bumped any of the more vulnerable passengers. I guess culture, worse: appropriated culture, trumps better thinking and more practical values. Maybe his family appreciated the return of their father and breadwinner?
