Vision statement of Black Atheists of America:

“

Our vision is to build a stronger and more diverse atheist community. Our efforts will provide for a society where one can embrace the label "atheist", without the fear of being ostracized by family, friends, and members of their community. We envision a world where individuals embrace critical thinking, in lieu of faith.
