Port Chicago Alliance
The Port Chicago Sailors were denied the recognition they earned.
The Port Chicago Alliance exists to help restore it.
The Port Chicago Alliance (PCA) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and sharing the history and legacy of the Port Chicago Sailors while advancing education, recognition, and historical justice.
Through public programs, community partnerships, educational initiatives, and commemorative events like Port Chicago Weekend, PCA works to ensure that this pivotal chapter of American history is remembered, understood, and passed on to future generations.
