Scrabble ban on racial slurs angers top players Barney Davis
Scrabble has banned racial slurs from scoring points on the family favourite board game to the ire of libertarians and scrabble players.
In total, over 400 dictionary defined terms have vanished from the game after one of Scrabble’s owners, Mattel, said there are no other games where players “can win by using a racial epithet”.
There is no one list of the banned terms, but online Scrabble check websites allow players to type in a word to see if it can be played.
Various slurs against black, Pakistani, Irish and white people have been axed but some offensive terms against Australian aboriginal communities are still valid, according to one campaigner.
