For those who took the SAT or ACT, you'll notice that the prayer was pretty simple and not meant to be taken as a racist statement but mere rhyming.
Even if we give Lowery the benefit of the doubt, and say his remarks were not intended to be racist, they obviously can easily be taken as being racist.... and Lowery should have been smart enough to have known that ahead of time.

So at the very least, I think he used poor judgment, and his comments showed a lack of sensitivity, and were simply inappropriate, especially for an occasion like this.
