Soul is the owner of Soul Wired Café and said that it was hard to be excited in the midst of the Charleston massacre. “My excitement is dim because I’m an angry black woman. It’s hard to be excited when people can walk into churches and kill people. This is a step for protecting rights of all humans—but until rules are put in place to eliminate hate, I can fear for my life at any second,” she said. “We don’t talk about things—it’s an insult for me to see a Confederate flag. It would be like Jews in Germany seeing the Nazi symbol, the swastika, after the war. It’s mentally draining for me to look up and see a Confederate flag.”
