    Probably not the best idea if you are black, either.

          It would only be racist if it was a white guy leaving watermelon gifts on black porches.

          If it were a black guy leaving watermelons on black porches, Afro-American solstice fruit Santa. It would become racist again if white people tried to participate by leaving stereotypical black cultural gift offerings akin to milk and cookies for Santa.

            “Racially insensitive,” perhaps, but just trying to participate in someone’s culture is usually pro-social. Only as a form of mockery would I call that racist.

              Hence the leaving of “stereotypical black cultural gifts”. You can imagine what white people would leave as a gift for a black person, that they only understand from popular culture.
