{{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 [[Secular humanism|Humanist]] organizations — 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.

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>}}
