Sad how few views this amazing series got - too many people only care about the big names but not the heart of the sport. Perhaps some better titles, thumbnails, and promotion would help if they do something like this again but tough to say. What a shame, these spotlights were wonderful to see.
100% agree. i’m just getting into chess, (just learned how to play in the last couple months) and watching this series has really helped me see and realize that you don’t have to look a certain way or be a certain type of person to play and love it.
@@coveythesadghost8585 and you can play with anyone anywhere from any age! thats what inspires me a lot to get better is because i can play it with old family members or when im traveling with some random person
That was a great piece. Hope they keep coming.
Thank you for teaching chess to our youth. Skills on the chess board carry over to life.
Absolutely amazing story. Thank you for sharing it!
Please do more of these! It's so inspiring as a noob to see series like this and especially featuring people that look and sound like me.
awesome series, we need season 2 already
These vids aren’t long enough. Love these stories.
If you ever plan to bring this series back then I would love for you to do something in Michigan like the Detroit chess club or another club.
Sheeeesh I will visit chess park lounge soon in Glendale. I had no idea. 🎉🎉🎉
Noble initiative by Damen Fletcher . More "Queen of Katwe" than "Queen's Gambit" .
Dope - great videography ♟️
I loved the message at the end of instilling confidence and power to the young kings and queens of color coming up. Very beautiful video ☺️.
😂😂😅😅omg did this ninja just say BEEPERS😂😂😂😂
amazing
I feel like the thumbnails for this series could be improved to get more clicks…
Final episode?? I just got here
I teach chess in san francisco to kids in school as well.
I was thinking of doing something for the kids in London. Especially from deprived areas
Dope!
These guys are straight outta Compton, went to the Debonair Lounge and didn't go back. 🤪
I'm thinking, it's not all fat Cubans and a few beers with your besties.
Obviously, the idea and dedication to bring positive and life changing skills to kids by teaching them chess, comes from the heart. The fact theye been doing it for 15 years proves that schools see it as money well spent. The fact that it has brought them financial success is a proof of concept, like a positive catch 22 situation, if that makes sense.
GG!
im looking for the song from the first scene but it was on the speed chess championship, after snoops barber explains the difference in starting the car and driving f1 theres such a nice song anyone know what it is ?
Hmm interesting
❤👍
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
3:00 "The question was, if you had all the money you needed, (be careful. "Need" is not much), what would you do with your time?"
See, that is what was great about the free enterprise we used to have. What we did with our time, earned us the money we needed,---and we all got further opportunity from it. :)
Bummer those days are gone.
any Straight outta Gotham thugs in the comments?
