The search tab on top of Thunderbird email client, while typed with search string, shows black drop down list. This would be white in general.

I also could not upload a screen shot as pressing any key hides the drop down immediately.

Try to start Thunderbird in safe mode. https://support.mozilla.org/kb/safe-mode-thunderbird

Issue still persists.

"Shutter" and other such screen shot programs allow you to capture menus and so forth.

I see some oddities with menus in Thunderbird on Linux. Often there are radio buttons or checkboxes that don't show, so it's impossible to tell which option is selected. I wonder if your black menus are another symptom of issues with faulty rendering?
