Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of Reddit and husband of Serena Williams, has resigned from the company’s board and is recommending his spot be taken by a Black candidate
Ohanian and Williams married in 2017, the same year their daughter was born.
“It is long overdue to do the right thing,” Ohanian said in a video posted to Instagram. “I’m doing this for me, for my family, and for my country. I’m saying this as a father who needs to be able to answer his black daughter when she asks: ‘What did you do?'” Founded in 2005, Reddit has consistently drawn an avid, young base of core users, with 50% of its 330 million monthly active users as of 2019 falling in the 18-24-year-old demo. In recent years, the company has worked to clean up and professionalize its network, which has been a popular but rough-hewn and occasionally vitriolic online environment. Though the company does not officially disclose advertising revenue, it reportedly took in more than $100 million from ads for the first time in 2018.
