I was once accused of being racist for telling a story about how I joked that my black friend didn't need sunscreen.

Tell the story and explain the joke then

Was at the beach with some mates and had some sunblock, after I SlipSlopSlapped, I asked if my black mate if he wanted some, then quickly corrected myself saying "nah you're alright, anyone else?"

He had a chuckle and said "fuck you", then I gave him the tube because black people still get sunburned.
