He has done horribly with Black voters even though he has made slight inroads. Younger Blacks are more so for Bernie, but you're still finding Hillary winning a slight majority depending on the state. A lot of it does have to do with the Clinton brand and the fact that Bernie has no "street cred". Sanders message is one that actually should appeal to Black voters but for whatever reason it is not translating into votes. As he is going to find out, you can't win the Democratic nomination without the majority support of the Black Dem voting base.
