Diva Lounge & Tufts students

Although the relationship between Tufts students and the local community is tenuous at times, I thought that community members should be aware of this editorial, and perhaps a dialogue can be established.

Editorial in Tufts Daily - "Racism at Diva Lounge"

Thanks - I did try to get in touch with the author of the article, but haven't heard back yet. If anybody posting here has contact info for any of the other students who were there, please pass it along to me at mmendonca@ci.somerville.ma.us.

Who is the owner?

I too would like to get corroboration of this incident, including confirmation that the owner of Diva Lounge also owns Diva, before permanently boycotting them (I'm okay with temporarily boycotting them until they issue a response). Neither Diva nor Diva Lounge are listed in the Better Business Bureau. I'd also be interested to learn how to check whether the offending owner also owns any other businesses in the area as I have heard that they do own at least one other restaurant, which I will not name so as not to get any rumor started.
