US election: Clinton vs Trump on race relations

How do Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump plan to deal with America’s increasingly strained race relations?

In the run-up to the US presidential election, Hillary Clinton capitalised upon her Democrat rival’s – Bernie Sanders – support among black voters, and is now widely considered to have the African-American vote in the bag.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump has run a hardline anti-immigration campaign centred around the promise to build a wall to keep Mexican migrants from crossing into the US.
