White and Black are considered non-colors.
I'm sure scientists don't define it that way, though.
Black is not considered a color to scientists, but the problem with their view is they see it as an absolute.
To scientists, color is the distribution of relative intensity of light across the visible portion EM spectrum, brightness, or to artists and photographers - tone, is the sum of absolute intensity across the visible spectrum. What is perceived by human eye to be either white or black are the results of either high or low brightnesse. At very high and very low brightnesses that human eye might perceive as white and black, the human eye can not discern the distribution of relative intensity at different parts of spectrum, it can only discern the total brightness across the whole spectrum.
So black or white can be precisely the same color as defined by scientists, but different brightness
Understood?

Why don't white people become more primitive when they go to these countries then? Europeans came to America, and took away the savages, implemented capitalism and free trade. They didn't turn into savages like the native Americans after they arrived.
Wait, seriously? You typed that and read it back and didn't realize how stupid you sound?
The sort of minimum intelligence needed to discern the stupidity during read back would have prevented him from typing the doggerel in the first place.
