What makes you so sure he understood?
I have no idea where you gathered I thought he was trying to emulate a 50s era cartoon.
I think he was trying to dress as some sort of black celebrity at a party of some sorts. And, in the last 20+ years, that has been more than sensitive in US culture. Is it racist?
some certainly feel that way. Is it poor decision making? Yes, especially now given the benefit of hindsight after losing a 6 fugure job offer because of it.

Anything by definition that involves race is racism. It has morphed into anything that is done with the intent of discrimination. I do not think these type photos fit that definition, but we have a culture that is trying to bend over backwards to prove they are not racist. An element of society trying to take advantage of it.
