Refinery29's editor-in-chief is stepping down after accusations of a racist and toxic company culture bubbled over in the past week:

"It's time for a new generation of leadership that’s truly reflective of the diversity of our audience," Barberich said in a statement.Author:Whitney BauckPublish date:Jun 8, 2020Christene Barberich, co-founder and longtime global editor-in-chief of Refinery29, announced that she would be stepping down from the head of the company on Monday. The cause? Accusations of racism and toxic company culture at the media business she helped create in 2005.

"Hey @Refinery29, cool blacked out homepage! But you know what real allyship looks like? Paying your Black employees fairly, having Black women in top leadership positions & addressing the microagressions your Black employees deal with from management on a daily basis," tweeted former employee Ashley Alese Edwards.

The company went on to acknowledge that this was just "the first step," and on Monday, Barberich's Instagram announcement that she would be stepping down seemed a clear second step.
