Two men in Durham have launched a movement to increase Black ownership of homes and small businesses in Durham.

Their campaign, called Bank Black Durham, is working to shed light on the role banks play in shaping minority communities.

Black-owned banks like Mechanics and Farmers in Durham support under-served communities by helping people realize their dreams of owning a home or business.
