black represents a color; dark.

Some people also consider it a way as calling someone African American.

In the color spectrum black represents the quality of not reflecting any visible light. Black has been known to have many different meanings in different contexts. In the west for instance, black represents a demographic group of people of a certain skin color. In Portuguese politics black is the color of the left bloc. Pirates used to wave a black flag just before raiding merchant ships in the high seas. The Chinese of yore believed black represented the north and water, but had no negative or positive meaning. In fact, there are dozens of examples of both negative and positive meanings for it in cultures and religions all over the world.

To answer the question you'll have to put the word black into context. Black can mean many things to many people. :)
