Forsyth and Heith Copes wrote: "Atheism as a subject of social science has also generally been ignored in comparison with the scholarly work on religion" (see page 41 of their book). Social Scientists are often generally reluctant to study atheists and it is considered not a great thing to have on your resume for future employment as far as graduate students (see: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fB7Dlwaufyk Why is Psychology Silent When it Comes to Atheism? - Dr. Melanie Brewster - Skepticon 7], Published on Nov 27, 2014). According to the atheist Dr. Melanie Brewster, "Good peer-reviewed psychology journals are kind of hesitant to take studies on atheism."[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fB7Dlwaufyk] Hunsberger was the first social scientists to do a fairly intensive look at atheists and a book on his study was published in 2006.[httphttps://www.amazon.com/Atheists-Groundbreaking-Study-Americas-Nonbelievers/dp/1591024137] One of the great ironies of this state of affairs is that the very well-known psychiatrist [[Sigmund Freud]] was an atheist (much of his work is now considered [[pseudoscience]]).[http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/books/defender-of-a-damaging-pseudo-science/157101.article] (See also: [[Sigmund Freud's view of religion]]).</ref><ref>[[Global atheism|Global atheism/agnosticism is declining]] and the trend of [[desecularization]] is expected to continue in the 21st century.

In response to the demands of black students in the 1970s, many universities established academic programs in "black studies" or "Africana Studies." These programs were structured as conventional departments that offered majors, master degrees and even doctorates in the field. Specialized journals reported on their scholarship and research. However, as a part of the [[Black Lives Matter]] movement, black students are demanding new programs in "anti-black racism", mandatory training in "anti-racism" during new student orientation and even for-credit mandatory classes in [[anti-racism]]. This raises the logical question whether these demands are an implicit rejection of the prior black studies programs as ineffective or illegitimate. For example, will the student's demands be satisfied if the new graduation requirement was to take one of a number of classes offered by an area studies or Africana Studies program? What is the value of an Africana Studies major's degree awarded over the past fifty years now that the current academic fashion has embraced anti-racism? It is unclear how anti-racism studies differs from black studies or Africana studies.* During summer 2020, Martha Pollack, President of [[Cornell University]] recommended that all students, faculty and staff engage in a "community book read" of ''How to Be an Antiracist'' by [[Ibram X. Kendi]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://statements.cornell.edu/2020/20200603-support-strengthen-community.cfm|title=Immediate actions to support and strengthen our community|date=June 3, 2020|accessdate=2020-08-21}}</ref>* The [[University of Pittsburgh]] requires a one credit hour course, "Anti-Black Racism: History, Ideology, and Resistance (PITT 0210)" to indoctrinate all students in [[anti-racism]].
