United? We Pray

United? We Pray (UWP) is a ministry to help Christians pray and think about racial strife. They want to encourage Christians amid the strife to rely upon God in prayer. So our prayers can be informed, we strive to learn and write about race, racism and its effects, and theology. They aim to be biblical, beneficial, and clear in all our efforts. While they're burdened for all racial strife, we focus on racial strife between Christians because of the unique privilege and stewardship God has given his people: to bear witness to Him and to love all people, especially one another (Gal. 6:10).

On their website you can find great podcast conversations, articles, and other resources.
