This is my mom's car and it hasn't been used in months. The battery was dead so I wanted to jump start it. When I lifted the hood, I felt like I was on another planet. There's a negative terminal that looks familiar, but I can't figure out where to attach the cable for the positive terminal. It's some kind of black cube that attaches to a metal post, using a red plastic clip. Any suggestions? Thank you for any help you can provide.

Black is the ground negative or you can use metal on car or engine
red is power positive
