White has always been thought of as the color of purity and cleanliness. Black has always been associated with mystery, darkness, evil.
The above has nothing to do with people. No person is actually white, and none is coal black. We're all shades of the same color. There are lighter shades and darker shades, but actually all the same basic color.

I have always had the feeling the good guy is depicted in white because he is more pure and wants to do good, where as the bad guy wants to do evil and evil has always been associated with darkness or black, That's just my opinion.

Why is it a little white lie and and a big black lie? When the sky has white clouds were fine, when black clouds come we are in trouble. I guess that is the way society put it.

I guess you only notice stuff like that when you want to. I just went through and read the answers related to the question. Its crazy. I dont see black and white. Sorry. Things aren't labeled like that anymore, unless thats how you see them. Positive minds think and know positive things.

Black has always been a morbid kind of symbol, witches, dead people, black business suits, you know things like that it has been a gloom and doom kinda thing for always. White has always been an angelic symbol, wedding dresses, angels, purity.So what would you change it to?

look up white and black in the dictionary and figure it out.this is a touchy subject with black people,but the meanings are correct. websters dictionary was written by a white man and he basically defined white as pure,and black as evil...

It's a cliché, like purity impersonated by a blonde and sin devoted to brunettes in a number of movies. Makes things easier to convey and spares money and time in explaining things to people.
