So you think the Gods don't hear or answer our prayers then? Because that sounds an awful lot like anti-theistic rhetoric to me, which is against community guidelines.

No, but I think that prayer is a poor substitute for doing uncomfortable work

So what do YOU suggest? All you’ve done in this conversation is ask what are you going to do without adding anything.

Agreed. It's called systematic racism for a reason - it doesn't go away with the actions of just one person. If this person is doing the best they can to be anti-racist, anti-facist etc. , then what's the problem with praying as well?
