It brings together voices from across the Celtic spiritual spectrum-Pagan and Christian, mystic and scholar, poet and prophet-to confront the spiritual wound of racism and the myths of supremacy that still divide and damage our world. Each chapter is offered not as an abstract reflection but as a modern-day lorica: a prayer of forceful protection-in the form of an essay, meditation, and action-lifted up in a time of peril and oppression. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut it is not enough to write prayers or say prayers. It is not enough to theorize about racism while another Black man dies in the street, another immigrant family is detained, or another trans woman of color is murdered. This book calls us to take up the practice of daily undoing racism, not as a performance but as a cost-bearing commitment. Our loricas must become our lives. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eMay this book be only a beginning.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Anamchara Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51967098945810,"sku":"9781625249319","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_1698c6bb-7207-4c78-8532-f665f1f75c73.jpg?v=1768925333","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/lorica-celtic-voices-against-racism-9781625249319","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
