Jerome Massot reports that there is a bug in TSNE that means that colors that are passed in on instantiation do not affect the colors of the plot.
In this example, we'll validate that the bug exists, and that his proposed solution works

"""
Display a projection of a vectorized corpus in two dimensions using TSNE,
a nonlinear dimensionality reduction method that is particularly well
suited to embedding in two or three dimensions for visualization as a
scatter plot. TSNE is widely used in text analysis to show clusters or
groups of documents or utterances and their relative proximities.
Parameters
----------
X : ndarray or DataFrame of shape n x m
A matrix of n instances with m features representing the corpus of
vectorized documents to visualize with tsne.
y : ndarray or Series of length n
An optional array or series of target or class values for instances.
If this is specified, then the points will be colored according to
their class. Often cluster labels are passed in to color the documents
in cluster space, so this method is used both for classification and
clustering methods.
ax : matplotlib axes
The axes to plot the figure on.
decompose : string or None
A preliminary decomposition is often used prior to TSNE to make the
projection faster. Specify `"svd"` for sparse data or `"pca"` for
dense data. If decompose is None, the original data set will be used.
decompose_by : int
Specify the number of components for preliminary decomposition, by
default this is 50; the more components, the slower TSNE will be.
classes : list of strings
The names of the classes in the target, used to create a legend.
colors : list or tuple of colors
Specify the colors for each individual class
colormap : string or matplotlib cmap
Sequential colormap for continuous target
alpha : float, default: 0.7
Specify a transparency where 1 is completely opaque and 0 is completely
transparent. This property makes densely clustered points more visible.
kwargs : dict
Pass any additional keyword arguments to the TSNE transformer.
Returns
-------
ax : matplotlib axes
Returns the axes that the parallel coordinates were drawn on.

class TSNEVisualizer(TextVisualizer):
"""
Display a projection of a vectorized corpus in two dimensions using TSNE,
a nonlinear dimensionality reduction method that is particularly well
suited to embedding in two or three dimensions for visualization as a
scatter plot. TSNE is widely used in text analysis to show clusters or
groups of documents or utterances and their relative proximities.
TSNE will return a scatter plot of the vectorized corpus, such that each
point represents a document or utterance. The distance between two points
in the visual space is embedded using the probability distribution of
pairwise similarities in the higher dimensionality; thus TSNE shows
clusters of similar documents and the relationships between groups of
documents as a scatter plot.
TSNE can be used with either clustering or classification; by specifying
the ``classes`` argument, points will be colored based on their similar
traits. For example, by passing ``cluster.labels_`` as ``y`` in ``fit()``, all
points in the same cluster will be grouped together. This extends the
neighbor embedding with more information about similarity, and can allow
better interpretation of both clusters and classes.

Parameters
----------
ax : matplotlib axes
The axes to plot the figure on.
decompose : string or None, default: ``'svd'``
A preliminary decomposition is often used prior to TSNE to make the
projection faster. Specify ``"svd"`` for sparse data or ``"pca"`` for
dense data. If None, the original data set will be used.
decompose_by : int, default: 50
Specify the number of components for preliminary decomposition, by
default this is 50; the more components, the slower TSNE will be.
labels : list of strings
The names of the classes in the target, used to create a legend.
Labels must match names of classes in sorted order.
colors : list or tuple of colors
Specify the colors for each individual class
colormap : string or matplotlib cmap
Sequential colormap for continuous target
random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional, default: None
If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator;
If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator;
If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used
by np.random. The random state is applied to the preliminary
decomposition as well as tSNE.
alpha : float, default: 0.7
Specify a transparency where 1 is completely opaque and 0 is completely
transparent. This property makes densely clustered points more visible.
kwargs : dict
Pass any additional keyword arguments to the TSNE transformer.
