 Businesses To Support Local Black Banks 

BHR Hollywood Reports.......Atlanta based rapper/civic leader Killer Mike jump started Black History Month in Atlanta alongside Usher, Jermaine Dupri & more, by encouraging the support of local, Black owned banks.

“Empowerment starts with ownership. We’re here supporting Citizens Trust Bank as a Black bank, but it also stands for the support of all the Black businesses that they

support. Its all about supporting our own,” Usher explained.

Killer Mike agreed with Usher. stating  “Bank small, bank local, bank black,” he said. “Gone are the days of most banks knowing their account holders.

 I can walk in here and voice my concerns, my complaints — or my compliments — to a live person.

 I know the staff here, they know me. I know my dollar counts. 

We are quick to say what we don’t have but here is a Black institution, 95 years strong and poised to grow, that is supporting the community.

 If we could get one million black people to come in and open one bank account with 100 dollars, in one weekend, that’s 100 million dollars. This is how we make Black history.”

Jermaine Dupri joined in on the crusade and also put a bit of his money in Citizens Trust.  Durpi shared the following video alongside Killer Mike and Usher after they all opened accounts.
