There’s a Change.org petition demanding that an INDEPENDENT investigation be done to address the allegations of racism and sexism at Flight restaurant. Russ Graham, the co-owner, had said an investigation would be conducted, but he did not say it would be done by a third party not connected to the restaurant. The petition calls for the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission and the NAACP to handle the investigation, and for Russ Graham to step down as a partner if he is personally implicated in the findings.
