Port Chicago - Doctors of Dynamite
Port Chicago was a major munitions loading depot in California. All munitions used by the US in the World War II (WWII) Pacific Theater went through Port Chicago.
The worst tragedy on the Home Front in WWII occurred on July 17, 1944 when an explosion obliterated the port and its primarily African American operators.
In the aftermath, the US Navy prosecuted black sailors who were courageous enough to refuse working under terrible conditions. As stated by Park Ranger Betty Reid Soskin, the sailors' resolve can be described as the ‘embers’ of the modern civil rights movement. Eighty years later, reflecting on the repercussions of the trial, the US Navy has finally exonerated the workers.
This film is a collaborative effort between the National Parks of the San Francisco Bay Area, CA
and the Roosevelt-Vanderbilt National Historic Sites of Hyde Park, NY

    It was King George VI and his consort, Queen Elizabeth (later the Queen Mother) who joined in the visit to Top Cottage --NOT Queen Elizabeth II, who succeeded her father after his death in 1952. This is a rather glarind historical error and should be corrected on the tape.

    I grew up with Descendants of Japanese that were in these Internment Camps. It was hard times for everyone then, but especially them that lost all that they owned. The way I understand it. They were reimbursed for there property 20 years after the war and the exchange rate was unfair. Most went on with their lives best they could. My childhood friends father was in these internment camps and went on to farming after the War. I believe they were sugar beet farmers.

    Thanks for this. At Warm Springs, I was struck by how small the Little White House was, but I'd never considered that all the houses FDR built were so much smaller than Springwood, or that he had given away the mansion he'd inherited (plus, as your ranger mentioned in our tour of the Vanderbilt house, FDR encouraged its owner to donate it to the NPS!) Embracing life on a human scale was so very different from attitudes among the wealthy before the Depression, or, indeed, today.
