Intuitively speaking, black is an absence of light and, therefore, absence of color. White is the presence of light—all wavelengths, and so does not refer to a specific wavelength or color.
Unless youre talking about printing. Then white is the absense of color. Lol
Color is the perception of light, it is not light itself. Black is the color of the perception of the absence of light. So it is a color

Brown, grey, purple, are all just mind games too.- Violet is a single bandwidth of light whereas purple is our mind combining two sets of bandwidth (Red and Blue) etc. If purple, pink, grey and brown are colours then it is fair to say black and white are too.
Light is not color. Color is the perception of light. Black is a perception of the lack of light; it is a color. White is the presence of all wavelengths of light: You can perceive this; it is a color.
They're neutral shades in pigment. In light they are total reflection or absorbtion.

Nag aral ng science ng napakabuti pinag discussionan pa nila yung colors of light
Black and white are colors depending on which color theory you follow. One is by famous German physicist Manfred Richter: The German term for it is "unbunt" bzw. "Unbunte Farben". Which literally translates to "Non-colorful colors". He argues that if the only difference between a strong brown and a light orange is the amount of black/white in there, then can't the same be said about two greys? Pushing that to the extreme makes black and white colors just like any other form of grey IN THAT THEORY. Please not that other theories say different things and there's rarely a right or wrong, just a different way of calling/describing things.
You can also say 까만색. 흑 works as well, but it's based on the Chinese character. It's also used for the race 'black' - 흑인. Not to be confused with 흙, which means 'soil'.

So in English, we usually say "black and white", which for example refers to the old colorless films and photos. Are black and white usually said in the order "white and black" in Korean?
하얗다 to be white / 하얘요 it is white (ㅎirregular) / 하얀 white (thing) / 하양 = 하얀색 ---- 검다 to be black / 검어요 it is black / 검은 black (thing) / 검정 = 검은색 (noun)
Colors is an American aberration if the Englis word colours. Colours us the correct spelling.
About black no comments, but white definitely isn't a color. Not like it matters, though.
