ABC Sydney radio station asks if chess is racist because white always moves first | 7NEWS

Former Australian chess representative John Adams has hammered a Sydney radio station for asking if chess is racist because white always moves first.

Adams revealed on Tuesday he’d received a call from a producer at ABC Sydney asking if he’d contribute to a segment on racism in chess that will hit the airwaves on Wednesday.

“They called me up and asked whether I was the John Adams involved in chess,” Adams told The Daily Telegraph.
