== Sikivu Hutchinson on diversity within the atheist movement ==
The atheist [[Sikivu Hutchinson]] declared:
{{Cquote|Despite frequent tokenistic calls for “diversity” within the “movement,” there are virtually no people of color in executive management positions in any of the major secular, atheist, or Humanist organizations[/tweetable]—notable exceptions being Debbie Goddard of Center for Inquiry and Maggie Ardiente of American Humanist Association. People of color are constantly bombarded with claims of separatism, reverse discrimination, and “self-segregation” when they point to the absence of social justice, anti-racist community organizing, coalition-building, and visibility among secular organizations. After the Washington Post article, the vitriol and denialism among the “We are All Africans” white atheists was off the chain. This illustrates yet again that sticking a few of us on conference panels or secular boards is nothing but cheap appeasement. [tweetable]The only way to change the narrow politics of “inclusivity” is to change how secular Humanist and atheist agendas are shaped and framed.[/tweetable] Moving Social Justice is a part of that strategy.<ref>[https://religionnews.com/2014/10/09/atheism-social-justice-sikivu-hutchinson-first-people-color-beyond-faith-conference/ Atheism and social justice: Sikivu Hutchinson on the first People of Color Beyond Faith conference], ''Religion News''</ref>}}
