This is a very subjective question... but my views:
Some of the very popular debates state that Black is NOT a color, as any color would reflect some wavelength of light, and thus creating the hue.
Black absorbs the light completely, reflecting none of it.
=Black is absence of color, thus not a color.=
White, on the other hand, reflects the full spectrum of light, hence creating a white hue.
=White is presence of all the colors, thus it is a color.=
at risk of adding fuel to the fire it depends on use and context. generally white and black are considered shades or tones but in most art worlds a true color is a color that can not be made on its own and can be used with other true colors to develop the who visual range. as such "most" schools of art now recognise 5 primary colors. these colors being "red, yellow, blue, black and white"
