Elaine Welteroth, former editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue and youngest editor of Condé Nast ever, and the 2nd African American to hold this position, changed Teen Vogue to be more politically conscious.

Traffic to TeenVogue.com: 2.7M to 9.2M visitors a year, print subscriptions jumped 535%

Ex-Teen Vogue editor Elaine Welteroth: ‘The headlines implied I was a token black hire’

Welteroth was just 29 when Anna Wintour made her editor-in-chief. Months later, the magazine shut down. What did she do next?

I ain’t gon hold you…as a single woman going on almost 4 years now, see the ways people in relationships/married folks behave online and in real life does not inspire confidence in getting back into these dating streets…

not just miserable, but staying in actively harmful and abusive relationships because they can't reimagine life differently or alone

Problematic etc etc etc but I tell you this. I cannot wait to hit the age when I take the wheels all the way off. I’m going to have rich dinner parties with poor people, dress for lunch but not breakfast, pull out a heavy book when people bore me and just generally become the loon I was born to be.

On Teen Vogue: It's an amazing publication full of talented journalists. It offers so much value. It's clear the monied interests in media aren't interested in preserving that value, especially if it threatens the status quo that undergirds their wealth. Capitalism and journalism are enemies.

This is extremely troubling, because Teen Vogue had some of the best political writing around. I'm so sorry.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.
