Not only that, notice the heavy african theme (african prints, elephant and other african animal statuettes on the table) as well as the Nat King Cole and other black artists on the records in the background.
Yes, a very interesting background. (Is that a 'Christmas' card/signage on wall?) And while it 'seems' this would lead one to thinking this is Obama's home; we have to remember that FMD was a communist - and so, 'anti-America'/American. Many Blacks - particularly those who do not identify w/America. ..identified instead with their "native' - or at least their DNA home'. (True for those who do as well - of course - but easy to see/understand the environment here - for a 'Black communist' from Chicago.
OTOH. . .lol/
