BREAKING: Adam Rapoport announced his exit after freelance food journalist Tammie Teclemariam unearthed a 2013 Instagram photo of him wearing brownface for Halloween and perpetuating negative stereotypes about Latinx people.
In an Instagram post Monday night, Rapoport apologized for the “extremely ill-conceived” photo and for his “blind spots as an editor.”
“I am stepping down as editor-in-chief of Bon Appétit to reflect on the work that I need to do as a human being and to allow BA to get to a better place,” he said, adding that the publication’s staff and readers “all deserve better. The staff has been working hard to evolve the brand in a positive, more diverse direction. I will do all I can to support that work, but I am not the one to lead that work. I am deeply sorry for my failings and to the position in which I put the editors of BA.
