The hidden history of the Port Chicago 50
Eighty years ago, 320 people died in a massive explosion at a Navy munitions depot in Port Chicago, California. About two-thirds of those killed were Black sailors who loaded bombs and ammunition onto ships, and when 50 survivors refused to resume handling the explosives, they were convicted of mutiny. Author Steve Sheinkin joins Ali Rogin to discuss.
