title: ASP.net MVC navbar-brand to header text color
body: <p>It's Amazing that there is no easy to find answer to this one:</p>
  
  <p>I want to change the textcolor of all the ActionLinks in my header.
  I have tried this code:</p>
  
  <p>CSS:</p>
  
  <pre><code>.navbar-brand { color: black }
  .navbar-brand:visited { color: black }
  .navbar-default-color { color: black }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>CSHTML:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    @Html.ActionLink("Home", "Index", "Home", new { area = "" }, new { @class = "navbar-brand" })
  &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;div class="navbar-collapse collapse"&gt;
  
      &lt;ul class="nav navbar-nav"&gt;
  
          &lt;li&gt;@Html.ActionLink("Senders", "Index", "Senders", new { @class = "navbar-brand" })&lt;/li&gt;
          &lt;li&gt;@Html.ActionLink("Responders", "Index", "Responders", new { @class = "navbar-brand" })&lt;/li&gt;  
  
      &lt;/ul&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>All of the ActionLinks in my header inherits style from <strong>navbar-brand</strong>. But only the <strong>Home</strong> ActionLinks gets it's text color changed. (See picture)

  <p>Notice that the ActionLinks <strong>do</strong> in fact inherit text-size and font. Everything but the bloody text-color!</p>
  
  <p>How do I change the ugly grey color of the other ActionLinks using CSS?</p>
  
  <p>Sorry for dumb question, but why doesn't this just work?</p>
