That's just like asking if it's wrong to kill off a white character, or an Asian character - it's no different. If it's part of the story, it is what it is. It's only racist if you are directly targeting that black character _because_ they are black. And hey, if your story is _about_ a time when discrimination was really prevalent, which is not today contrary to popular belief, then that's fine too. Because it's a story. A story is a story. Just do what you want. No one is going to kill _you_ for writing a story, unless of course you are outright hating on them.
