As South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg continues to struggle with black voters, a rally was held by African American supports in South Bend on Wednesday.

The event however did not go over without some trouble. ABC 57 News reports that members of the South Bend chapter of the Black Lives Matter group managed to get a hold of a microphone and began criticizing the mayor.
