Yes! No! Let me explain... Color (I'm in the US!) is really the frequency of light waves. As the frequency increases, humans perceive different colors. The colors of the rainbow, red, orange, yello, green, blue, indigo, violet, are really just increasing frequency of light. So-called 'black light', more accurately called ultra-violet, or UV, is just a little higher in frequency than violet. The human eye is not able to see UV. So, if we define colors simply as light of increasing frequency, then yes, black light is a color. But, some will argue that a major characteristic of color is that it is something we 'see'. Since humans cannot perceive ultra-violet, we could argue it is not a color. Some animals and insects, however CAN see in the ultra-violet portion of the spectrum. UV would certainly be a color to them. So, unless we are extremely nit-picky, we would probably conclude UV is a colour.
