Black house vs white house

Do you have increased cooling load on a building with a black vs a white exterior if the building never gets direct solar exposure?

For example, consider a house painted black which is in the desert. There is a ramada over the house and the house never gets direct sunlight. Under these conditions, would it cost more to cool a black house vs a white house?
