Even if they were all actors, the point is still being made, the challenge to an embedded way of thinking is still there. But I don't think script writers would have picked out those different reasons for challenging bias.
I think they were all actors, and I don't at all feel like a jerk for thinking it. It's television. That means it's almost certainly 100% fake. Look at all the different camera-shots, the lighting. I call bullshit on the whole thing.
I had 40 years of racial harmony in my working life. In a manufacturing company. The company hired from an ethnically diverse community and promoted from within. It was more fun than you could shake a stick at when some mookie from the state showed up to audit us for the non-existent quotas we weren't required to meet. And none of s were actors.

I feel like a jerk suspecting that they were all actors.

That is almost as wicked as telling your readers that there is no Santa Clause. I hope you are wrong.
Very moving. Although, I feel like a jerk wondering how this piece was edited. Surely the skit was performed more than 4 times.
Why are interracial couples never shown as AA females and Cauc males?Racism!
