Confederate flag comes down as white woman apologizes for trolling black neighbors after she has a heart attack
Annie Caddell was welcomed into a predominately black neighborhood in Summerville, South Carolina.
And then she started flying Confederate flags.
"Every morning when I would walk out to get my newspaper, that's the first thing you'd see," said neighbor Juanita Edwards. "My husband stopped going to get the newspaper in the morning."
From there, it basically turned into The Butter Battle Book. Neighbors protested. Caddell invited neo-Confederate counter-protestors to stand in her yard. Neighbors put up walls to block the view. Caddell erected a taller flag pole.
"I don't make no apologies," she said at the time.
But after having a heart attack, and facing her mortality, Caddell decided she should make apologies.
