changing the color of paragraphs using p selector. How do you do that in css?

I typed "p" just like I would "h1" for headline 1. I guessed because I don't remember that being discussed in the video. what did I do wrong.

css/main.css 
a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
color:#fff;
}

P {
color:111;
}

Hey Justin, you almost got it, just forgot the # at the beginning of the color value, and it looks like they are asking for black which is #000 and lower case p. 

p {
  color: #000;
}
