Color Contrast is More than Good Design. 


It's the difference between inclusion and invisibility.

If you use color, make sure you're coloring inside the lines. In other words: use colors that have enough contrast between them so everyone can see them.
The best option is always going to be black text on a white background. It's classic for a reason.
ProTip: If you highlight information (e.g., with a distinct color change), include text to indicate the meaning behind the color.
