The main issue here is that you made a joke about race. It wasn’t funny, and was extremely distasteful. If this is still lost on you, then I suggest you take a moment to educate yourself on the matter and consider why this was offensive to so many people.

Is the list of the safe topics to make jokes published somewhere?
Obviously not, but I think it’s pretty straightforward: use common sense. If you think someone might take offense, then don’t say it.
Anyone might take offense, that's the point. Offense is taken, not given.
