Chess blog for latest chess news and chess trivia (c) Alexandra Kosteniuk, 2012

Hi everyone,

On March 1, Hip-Hop Chess Foundation founder Adisa Banjoko will present at Boston, Massachusetts' Harvard University. The Bay area native will lead a 90-minute interactive workshop titled, “Living The Game: The Powerful Fusion of Hip-Hop & Chess.”
 

Banjoko said in a statement: "This presentation will explain in great detail the interwoven histories of Hip Hop, chess and martial arts. Further, it will show how the blending of art, logic and physical fitness guide young people to self-discovery, self-mastery and 
nonviolence.”

Supporting the Ivy League event is Banjoko's friend and Wu-Tang Clan co-founder RZA, who provided the scholar with transportation to the event.
