The mayor of Omaha, Nebraska, is launching an investigation into the protests against (and eventual shutdown of) a local restaurant that was criticized for having a menu item that was deemed racist.
The 11-Worth Cafe, a staple in the Omaha community, announced earlier this month that it was closing its doors for good following “numerous threats” over a “racist” menu item, and Mayor Jean Stothert has gone on the record to say she doesn’t want the establishment to close and is investigating the situation, according to the Omaha World-Herald.
