how to change the color of an SVG object only using CSS?

Hi guys, I have an inserted the following svg object onto my HTML:

'''object type="image/svg+xml" data="graduates.svg" alt="The image wasn't found"></object>'''

with CSS I am targetting it like this:

'''.education object{

height: 60px;
width: 60px;
fill: #B86E25;

} '''

while the height and width is working I am unable to change the fill/color? How do I go about doing this?

Thanks in advance!

"color-fill:#B86e25;" Pretty must just add color before fill. This might help it actually color. what your filling
