Experience the powerful 1999 film Mutiny, produced by Morgan Freeman, which tells the true story of the Port Chicago Sailors and their courageous stand against racial injustice during World War II.

Following the screening, actor David Ramsey—best known for his starring roles in Arrow, Blue Bloods, and Dexter—will join us for a special conversation. Ramsey stars in Mutiny as one of the leaders of the Port Chicago 50, the group of Sailors whose protest became a defining moment in the struggle for civil rights in the U.S. military.

This special event commemorates Oakland's officially designated Port Chicago Remembrance Day and concludes with a panel discussion featuring David Ramsey, Congresswoman Lateefah Simon, and former California Senator and 2026 recipient of the Dr. Robert L. Allen Legacy Award, Roderick Wright, exploring the lasting legacy of the Port Chicago disaster, the Port Chicago 50, and the movement that ultimately led to the Sailors' 2024 exoneration.

Join us for an unforgettable afternoon of film, conversation, and historical insight, hosted in partnership with the Oakland Museum of California. Perfect for history enthusiasts, students, families, and anyone interested in one of the most important yet underrecognized civil rights stories of World War II.
