Finally someone who gets it.

It puzzles me how something like this can get so many people to trash their trousers in panic. Propaganda! Politics! Left wing! This really hurts my self esteem as an oppressed white male!

Saying no to racism isn't politics, it's common ethics. It's like saying no to bullying. Chess having black and white pieces makes it an easy metaphor for the cause, and that's about it. It's a nice message, not an attack against your precious game or conservative values.

Racism begins when the black hole steals all the matter or when the sky darkens and the housewives rush to take off the clothes from the clothesline or even when the white and black clothes are washed separately and, why not ?, when the Power Ranger black is black too (lol?)

Chess is just two armies with different uniforms. There are no racial subliminal messages. The game either exists in your sub-culture or it don't. 
We live in an age where people put race, gender, left or right, individualism or collectivism (etc) at the heart of their identity politics.
I prefer to play the board, shake hands say good game having ideally won the game.

ABC_of_EVERYTHING

if not fide chess.com certainly should have option of starting with black pieces

Just in case you haven't realized it yet, half the pieces in the game of chess are black. I rest my case.
