It comes across like they wanted to say something about race and only remembered halfway into it that they sell furniture. And the YouTube description of their video suggests they don't know what lit this particular fire under their feet, either. ("We thought something with a comical racial reconciliation theme would be fun, as well as a conversation starter.")
