How come the black kid has lines. Joke

I worked as a supervisor in a union machine shop for a while.
One day one of my African American workers pointed to the graphic on the machine that showed a guy getting caught in the machine.
He says to me how come it is always the black guy getting hurt.

My last name is White. We were at a company picnic and he loudly says hi Whitey. His family was shocked. Mine had heard it before.
