    Whites have a strategic advantage though. They get the first move.

    Blacks always are put in a position where they have to respond to whites and their shenanigans.

    yes.

    from wikipedia...

    Each player has control of one of the two sets of colored pieces and are typically referred to by the nominal color of their respective pieces, i.e., White or Black. White moves first and, as in most board games, the players alternate moves. Play continues until a draw is declared, a player resigns, or a king is checkmated, as explained below.

    Unlike Go, where the order of play is determined by the relative skills and handicaps of the players, the official chess rules do not include a procedure for determining who plays White. Instead, this decision is left open to tournament-specific rules (e.g. a Swiss system tournament or Round-robin tournament) or, in the case of non-competitive play, mutual agreement, in which case some kind of random choice is often employed.

    Blacks and whites, always trying to put the yellow man down.
    Excuses are just tools of incompetence

    And those who specialize in the uses

    In this day and age I can't believe how oblivious we can be to the blatant racism inherent in such a common game as chess. I mean why is it that white always gets to go first? Furthermore, why is it that no one has stood up against this? I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where chess pieces will not be judged by the color of their exteriors but by the content of their characters.
