Margaret threatened the quartermaster to go back to the titanic and save the others or she would tthrow him overboard.

When the Titanic sank, Margaret comforted those who had lost there husbands and sons.

MUSIC

I thought the song RESPECT by Areatha Franklin described Margaret Brown the best. Margaret was a feminist so of course she wanted respect just like it says in the song "all im askin' is for a little respect" Margaret wanted equal rights so badly she even made a petition which she presented in court. Thats how much respect Margaret wanted.
