[[National Public Radio]] interviewed the African-American atheist [[Jamila Bey]] and the host of the interview said:

So, what about the black nonbelievers? It's one isolating experience, according to [[Jamila Bey]].<ref>[http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=127239913 Black Atheists Say Non-Belief Means Cultural Outsider], NPR, May 28, 201012:00 PM ET</ref>}}
