OneUnited Bank, America's largest Black-owned bank, is "Taking a Knee" for social justice to underscore its commitment to the issue in a partnership with the ACLU and the BMe Community. The initiative includes the commissioning of a painting (pictured), "Last Man Standing," by acclaimed artist Addonis Parker. The effort confirms their support of the controversial "Take a Knee Movement" and continues an eight-week campaign during which the bank will donate to related charities for every account opened now until year's end.
