Black does not attract heat. Radiant light does not go out of its way to strike its surface. Black is the name for surfaces that absorb all wavelengths of visible light. A black body radiator also radiates heat uniformly in a uniform distribution based on its temperature. On a black car in the summer Sun, the hottest vertical-facing surface is either the chrome bumper or any mirror that faces upwards.
