I'm partially memeing bc i get that it's a game from like 3000 yrs ago, but its a very easy modification.

Is there a reason why this isn't done? Or changing the colors to something else? (Blue vs red, which seems to be video game standard)

In order to make a change to the rules and tradition of anything, easy or not, it must be justified. Is there any reason to change the colors or rules concerning which player opens?

a youtube vid was talking about racism in gaming and mentioned chess, talking about how white is more likely to win due to first move
