Prayer
Most high God, you urge us to advocate for justice for the widowed and the orphaned. For our contemporary times, one form of oppression is against people of color through white privilege. Open our eyes to the impact racism has on the widowed and the orphaned...the African American woman brutalized by police...the Mexican American student being told derisively to go back to Mexico. Use us to face white privilege and dismantle racism. Amen.
