This is personification and a metaphor (either one or the other).
personification- it’s giving the clouds a feeling or trait (giving racist prejudice to clouds)
metaphor- not really meaning what it’s saying there are no “dark clouds” but it means it’s a dark time for people of what is happening

Metaphor because the clouds and fog are being compared to a completely different thing: racial prejudice and misunderstanding.
