Beschreibung
David MacEnulty dared to dream big. In the 1990's, despite the many skeptics and the scarcity of resources, he became a pioneer of chess in the public schools of the Bronx. The obstacles were formidable-poverty, crime, racism, and ignorance. Yet, with unwavering dedication, MacEnulty and his students defied all expectations. In Sunrise in the Bronx, MacEnulty describes his transformative journey from fumbling substitute teacher to legendary chess coach. Over the years, MacEnulty's chess teams win countless local, regional, and national championships, all while earning the respect of peers and mentors alike. They soon find themselves invited to dinner at the White House, where they are celebrated as symbols of hope and inspiration for all.
