The work around is to play with blue and red figures...the colour standing on row 1 and 2 moves first.

Will there be any difference?

Of course it is. Everything that is black and white must be removed to please BLM. The colours should be eliminated from the colour spectrum. Anyone who says that is impossible are racist.

Used to be black was considered the lucky color and you'd roll dice to see who moved first, regardless of color. White didn't move first by convention until the late 1800's.

Nope. It’s not racist. It has nothing to do with race.

Considering where the game originated at a time and place with no white people there, it probably stems from the concept of white being virtuous and black being the opposite.
White as in virgin, clean, etc.
Nothing to do with pink people. Or the concept of the pink people being white.
