On Thursday NM and VP of chess.com @Sam_Copeland presented a very engaging lecture on "Positions Chess Engines Just Don't Understand". Following the lecture, he performed a simul where he put 26 out of 27 of us in our place. Congrats to Josh Meisner for winning!

I have left US Chess and will no longer serve as director of US Chess Women, a program I started four years ago.
Resignation letter on why I cannot in good conscience lend my credibility to the org anymore.

Hi, South Carolina dad here. You're stealing funds from our public schools to subsidize private, religious schools. This is not only unconstitutional but morally wrong.

This was a really hard (yet very important) discussion for me to have with six outstanding ladies, colleagues and friends of mine. I hope you'll hear what we need to share with you, chess community 🥺💚
Thank you to the seven prominent women in chess for discussing their stories, and the important issues that they have faced, in this open and honest video.

Watching #NepoDing and reading your reactions to the @chesscom video on my and other female figures' experiences in the chess world... Thank you so for the immense amount of support 🥹 I'm still feeling quite vulnerable but will go live after the game and try to talk about it ❤️

It was an honor to be a part of this roundtable. We had a tough, but much-needed conversation on the state of women in chess and how we move forward as a community. Thank you to @chesscom and the wonderful @Anna_Chess

As we celebrate International Women’s Day, I want to share that I am who I am today because of the strong women in my life, like my mother Toor Pekai. I hope you honour the women in your life who helped you thrive and find ways to help others as well.

So I’ve been thinking a lot, especially since @jenshahade’s post, if I should make this post or not, and I’m still doubtful about it. However I’m very inspired by all the ladies out there who spoke up and so I decided to do it regardless. 1/8

NEW: @WSJ spoke with eight women who said they were sexually assaulted or harassed by prominent chess grandmaster, coach and commentator Alejandro Ramirez. Three were under 18 at the time of the alleged incidents.
