If this piece looks familiar, then you recognize it from Addonis's work with One United Bank. Addonis Parker is located in Miami, FL and has done other artwork for One United Bank, including a mural on one of their buildings in Miami. His artwork honors the Black community and the struggles faced in order to achieve civil rights.

Addonis also has an Art Forever Studio in Miami which strives to reach the hearts and artistic minds of at-risk youth.

One United Bank is headquartered in Boston and is owned by Teri Williams. By now you probably have heard about the "Bank Black" movement and hopefully you have opened up an account at a Black Bank. The biggest thing that impressed me with One United Bank is their commitment to being unapologetically black. (This photo is of a mouse pad that they sent me!) Their debit and credit cards also follow the same theme of having a strong and powerful Black image on them.

You can frequently see the owner doing live FaceBook videos with people such as Trayvon Martin's mother or the CEO, Kevin Cohee, on The Breakfast Club! Unlike a publicly owned institution, One United Bank doesn't have to "tone it down" for stockholders. 

Don't let the distance deter you; it is very easy to open an account online. Support this Black Bank by opening your account today!
