Black things attract dust, lint and dirt no more or less than lighter colored things. You may, however, notice lighter colored dust, lint and dirt more on a black background, though.

Black things tend to show dust, lint, and dirt more prominently due to the contrast in color. Light-colored particles are more visible on dark surfaces, making it appear as though they attract more dust. However, the amount of dust attracted to black objects is generally the same as any other color.
