<p dir="auto">I have a Paper element containing a grid system (24 columns) that contains a Paper, that contains a typography</p>
<div class="snippet-clipboard-content notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="(schematic)
&lt;Paper&gt;
  &lt;Grid container spacing={24}&gt;
    &lt;Grid item xs={12} sm={6}&gt;
      &lt;Paper&gt;
        &lt;Typography&gt;"><pre class="notranslate"><code class="notranslate">(schematic)

  &lt;Grid container spacing={24}&gt;
    &lt;Grid item xs={12} sm={6}&gt;
      &lt;Paper&gt;
        &lt;Typography&gt;
</code></pre></div>
<p dir="auto">I would like to change the Typography's font color to white, but it gets overriden by the Typography component. I <strong>can</strong> make it change if use the <code class="notranslate">style</code> attribute or the classes, but I would like to use some "normal" CSS for these kind of things</p>

<h2 dir="auto">Context</h2>
<p dir="auto">Even though I can use css by creating const and putting some css in it, I would like to avoid it because I don't know React and Material UI well enough to "allow me" this. The problem is it seems that I don't have a choice, or maybe I did something wrong</p>

<p dir="auto">I'm having an issue with <code class="notranslate">RaisedButton</code> only when used inside of the <code class="notranslate">Toolbar</code> component. Here is the code in question:</p>

  &lt;ToolbarGroup float='right'&gt;
     &lt;RaisedButton label='Continue' primary={true} onTouchTap={callNextPage} /&gt;
    &lt;/ToolbarGroup&gt;
 &lt;/Toolbar&gt;"><pre class="notranslate"><span class="pl-c1">&lt;</span><span class="pl-ent">Toolbar</span><span class="pl-c1">&gt;</span>

<p dir="auto">The result: as you can see, the button is no longer styled.</p>

<p dir="auto">What does work:</p>
<ul dir="auto">
<li>Changing the RaisedButton component to <code class="notranslate">FlatButton</code> works fine.</li>
<li>Other RaisedButton components in the app work fine</li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">What the isn't the problem:</p>
<ul dir="auto">
<li>There is no CSS effecting the particular RaisedButton</li>
<li>The path to the component is correct</li>
