Light is considered good. Darkness is considered underhanded and bad and evil. It has nothing to do with skin color. People wear dark color clothes at night to conceal themselves better.

This goes back to before there were different races, it goes back to when Man harnessed fire.

Fire, the light, kept predators away, provided warmth and protection.

It also cast dark shadows, made the night seem darker and highlighted predators eyes in the blackness.

This is the original reason all things light are considered good, and dark is considered bad. This trope keeps coming up in stories from 'Paradise Lost' to tales around a campfire.
