Hillary Clinton has released an ad hitting Donald Trump hard on his record with African-Americans.

The ad is called “African-American Voters Can Stop Trump,” and the Clinton camp told the Washington Examiner that it focuses on Trump’s “most disrespectful and demeaning comments toward African-Americans throughout the course of the campaign,” making the argument that he has an “out of touch perception of the African-American community.”

In addition to citing instances of Trump’s own remarks about the African-American community, the ad points out that Trump has received an endorsement from the Crusader, a newspaper tied to the Ku Klux Klan.

Trump’s camp has since said of the Crusader endorsement: “Mr. Trump and the campaign denounces hate in any form. This publication is repulsive and their views do not represent the tens of millions of Americans who are uniting behind our campaign.”

The ad also features plenty of footage of Barack and Michelle Obama, both of whom have been active on the campaign trail as they crusade for Clinton and call on voters in the United States to reject Trump.
