I’m having this problem after trying this solution, searching the codex and this forum. Here are all the various solutions I’ve tried:

.reply {
    color: #000000 !important;
}

#commentform #submit, .reply, #reply-title small {
    background-color: #000000;
    color: #ffffff;
}

.forum a { color: black !important; }

.bbp-forum-info { color: black !important; }

.bbp-forum-topic-count { color: black !important; }

.bbp-forum-reply-count { color: black !important; }

.bbp-forum-freshness { color: black !important; }

.bbp-topics {
color: black !important;
background-color:white;
}

.bbp-forums a { color: black !important; }

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-content a,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-content a {
	background-color: white;
}

#bbpress-forums div.even,
#bbpress-forums ul.even {
 background-color: #fff;
}
 
#bbpress-forums div.odd,
#bbpress-forums ul.odd {
 background-color: #fbfbfb;
}

/*styling to move 'Subscribe' to right hand side */
.single-forum .subscription-toggle  {
    float:right !important ;
}
