Port Chicago 50 Trial: A Civil Rights Turning Point

In this live presentation at the Treasure Island Museum, you'll explore the lasting impact of the 1944 Port Chicago disaster and the historic trial of 50 Black American Sailors wrongfully charged with mutiny for standing up against dangerous and discriminatory working conditions. You'll learn how the trial became a turning point in the struggle for civil rights in our nation, and join in community reflections on its continuing resonance through issues we still face today. Then visit the trial site and enjoy spectacular 360 degree Bay views atop nearby Yerba Buena Island.
