Accessibility issues with BLM landing page

[MylesBorins]

Hey All,

We received an email report that the links on the BLM landing page were hard to read for those who can't distinguish color contrast well.

Did a quick report and saw that there are indeed some accessibility improvements we can make on the page

I've not run this across the entire site, but as the BLM landing page borrows a bunch of the broader styles it might be a site wide issue. i'll try and find some time to fix this, but if anyone wants to take a pass at it first please don't wait for me.

@davidfekke that already happened in #3246

@MylesBorins Looking at Wave, I'm not seeing any contrast issues flagged https://wave.webaim.org/report#/https://nodejs.org/en/black-lives-matter/ but that can sometimes be subjective, even if the ratio is correct

@davidfekke the change to make a banner landed yesterday. The original plan was to replace the landing page for a week.

https://wave.webaim.org/report#/https://nodejs.org/en/black-lives-matter/ flags 32 color contrast issues for me, all in links.

Weird, maybe a browser related thing? I'm running in Firefox on Windows 10

I was running in Chrome but I get the same 32 errors in Firefox too. I'm on macOS.

OK, think I figured out why I wasn't seeing it. I use Stylish for custom CSS, and even though I toggled it off, it seems like it was still picked up in the iframe

The main page passes WCAG2AA AFAICT. I remember I checked it in the past also.

EDIT: NVM, this issue is for https://nodejs.org/en/black-lives-matter/ which indeed has issues.
