Help with changing text color.

Line 14 is the textColor attribute. But the IDE is not running the code, throwing me an error. Thanks in advance.

activity_main.xml 
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  android:layout_width="match_parent"
  android:layout_height="match_parent"
  android:background="@android:color/white" >

  <TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:text="Treehouse loves me!"
    android:textSize="72sp"
    andriod:textColor="@andriod:color/white"/>

</RelativeLayout>
