The Masters of disaster

The story of an inner-city teacher, Bob Cotter, and eight Black elementary school children who challenged some skeptical observers by organizing a chess team and going on to win a national championship. Called the Masters of Disaster, a label they adopted during their early struggles, the team is shown at practice, in school, in competition, on a trip to Japan, and during a visit with the President of the United States.
