Not only is the owner of this business not anti-BLM, but she's the nicest, sweetest, and warmest person I have ever met. The fact that Yelp is not taking these extremely harmful and harassing comments about anti-BLM down is disturbing and careless. I have lost complete respect for Yelp and I am disgusted by the accusations of these people with no regard to the owner and her business. This is especially true during a time when small businesses are struggling now more than ever. This spiritual store is just that. It is spiritual, loving, honest, full of compassion and warmth. The owner cares about everyone and loves everyone she comes into contact with. If someone from Yelp came into the store, they would know that. Unlike the one girl who interfered in a conversation she was not invited into that had nothing to do with anti-BLM. On top of the fact that she got her friends, who have never even been in the store or met the owner, involved by harassing this store and the owner through reviews on almost every format. If you would like to know the truth on this matter, you can view the segment made by NBC that consisted of an interview with the owner.
Oh! & might I add how funny it is that the people posting anti-BLM comments have only posted a review on this store and in nothing else. They got these yelp accounts just to harass this store. Way to go Yelp! Way to keep your community safe from detrimental and extremely serious issues such as actual racism. Especially accusations that can cause a small business to go under after years of hard work of saving up to start that small business and the amount of effort it takes to run that business.
I am trying to report a comment that has not yet been taken down. This review is 18 days old and promoting extremely false information and narratives. Yelp is not allowing me to report this comment because I have already done so and they apparently have deemed it worthy to stay posted. Yelp would not even allow me to send them a message pertaining to this review. So, I am posting that message here...
Again! This person has NEVER stepped into this store before. She is harassing the owner of this store and spamming other formats of reviews. Again, she has never even been in this store. She has also never met the owner. All of these people who are spamming and harassing this store through formats for reviews have never met the owner or has ever stepped into the store!! This review was based off of one experience by one person who interfered into a conversation that she was never invited into. The conversation also had nothing to do with anti-BLM or racism. The situation was recorded on a camera in the store, the owner called the cops and was given the option to have a cease and desist order placed on the girl. The news got wind of the story, interviewed the owner, and has played the segment multiple times over the past 3-4 weeks.
Racism is a serious issue. I cannot believe that Yelp does not understand what is happening here. By not taking these false reviews down they are continuing to allow a false narrative and false accusation to destroy this small business. On top of the fact that these reviews are promoting even more division between people with extremely false information! I am so beside myself about all of this. This is disgusting and disturbing on these girls parts as well as on Yelps. read more
