During an inauguration of the Culture year in Umeå 2014, Sofia conducted a call of anti-racism with Cleo and Kristin Amparo before the performance of the song "Faller en, faller alla". On stage at the same time was also a group of left-wing anti-fascist activists wearing ski masks with the message "Free Joel" printed on their shirts, which alludes to an activist who was arrested and convicted for attempted manslaughter and rioting because of the riots in Kärrtorp, when a group of Neo-Nazis attacked a left-wing anti-racism demonstration.
