Serena Wiliams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian, recently stepped down from the board of Reddit, a company he co-founded. Ohanian revealed his powerful reason for stepping down on his website, explaining that he wanted to one day be able to show his daughter, Olympia, that he stood by the Black community and fought against racism. “It is long overdue to do the right thing,” said Ohanian. “I’m doing this for me, for my family, and for my country.”
“I have resigned as a member of the Reddit board, I have urged them to fill my seat with a Black candidate, and I will use future gains on my Reddit stock to serve the Black community, chiefly to curb racial hate, and I’m starting with a pledge of $1M to Colin Kaepernick’s Know Your Rights Camp,” wrote Ohanian. “I believe resignation can actually be an act of leadership from people in power right now. To everyone fighting to fix our broken nation: do not stop.”
