That's also called getting noogies. Todd used to give noogies to Lisa Loopner all the time. It was a masculine way of showing affection.

I would be more inclined for Negro's to view it as a sign of dominance by a white person in the old segregated South. And the white perception, would have been more of friendly affection. Your two different "levels" of social awareness. One based on mistrust and submission and the other outwardly and open affection for his fellow man.
