"Color is a visible property of light, and derived from this, of objects"? Color is caused by properties of light, in that the color of an object consists of those aspects of its way of reflecting light that we can perceive. But epistemologically, isn't the order reversed in the sentence above? Different frequencies of light are said have different colors only because differences in those frequencies were discovered to be part of the causal chain by which we perceive colors of objects; colors of objects were known first.

[edit] a poem called coloured!

when i born , i black when i grow up , i black when i go in sun , i black when i scared , i black when i sick , i black and when i die , i still black

and you , white fellow, when you born , you pink when you grow up , you white when you gp in sun , you red when you cold , you blue when you scared , you yellow when you sick , you green when you die , you grey

and you call me COLOURED
