Teri Williams, President of OneUnited Bank, discusses the OneUnited Mural Project in a feature for NBC News. "The OneUnited Mural Project and the landmark mural, Thunder & Enlightening, by internationally acclaimed muralist Addonis Parker, helped bridge the divide between the banking industry and urban communities by recognizing their struggles and aspirations," Williams writes. "The OneUnited Mural Project actually became a 12-week apprenticeship-based program - with 21 teen apprentices from 9 public schools... [The mural] has been well received by the community. In fact, many don't see controversy, they see truth... And we see an opportunity to welcome many who have never been in a bank before."
