Inthesummerof1944,PortChicago—aNavybase30milesnortheastofSanFrancisco—wasthesceneofadevastatingexplosion.Hundredsofliveswerelostinwhat'sconsideredthedeadliesthome-frontdisasterofthewar.MostofthedeadandinjuredwereAfrican-Americans,putinharm'swaybyasegregatedmilitarylittleconcernedfortheirsafety.Worse,racismlayattheheartofthedisasterandlaterofaneventthathasbeencalledoneofthebiggestmiscarriagesofjusticeinourhistory.
