How to Change Background Color of Bootstrap Navbar

Question

I'm trying to change the color of a navbar coded in Bootstrap. So far, there have been built in Bootstrap classes applied to the navbar to change both the color of the background and the anchor links in it, but they have not changed the color at all. Is there something that could be done to fix this?

Here is the HTML:

<!-- import Bootstrap -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

<nav class="navbar navbar-light bg-white navbar-inverse">
  <div class="container-fluid">
    <div class="navbar-header">
      <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#myNavbar">
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>
        <span class="icon-bar"></span>    
      </button>
      <!-- <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">WebSiteName</a> -->
      <a href="index.html"><img src="fusebloomLogo.png" alt="FuseBloom logo" class="logo"/></a>
    </div>
    <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="myNavbar">
      <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
        <li class="active"><a href="#home">Home</a></li>
        <li><a href="#mission">Mission</a></li>
        <li><a href="#reviews">Reviews</a></li>
        <li><a href="#process">Process</a></li>
      </ul>
    </div>
  </div>
</nav>
