In the Footsteps of Joseph Laroche

The story of Joseph Laroche remained largely untold for many years. In 1995, his daughter Louise, one of the last remaining Titanic survivors, revisited the SS Nomadic, the tender ship that had transported them to the Titanic, and participated in commemorative events honoring the passengers who embarked from Cherbourg. 

Joseph Laroche's story has been the subject of various works, including the opera LaRoche by composer Sharon J. Willis. His life and sacrifice continue to inspire discussions about race, identity, and the untold narratives of history.
