White absorbs the least light. The "pigment" that causes the color white does not absorb any other colors, so all the colors are reflected back to you as "everything", or white. Think of white light. There are many colors hidden in white light, and by the process of refraction, white light can be separated and a rainbow of colors revealed. Black, on the other hand, is a pigment that absorbs all colors of light. Since no color is present, what you see is essentially a reflection of "nothing".
