They had groundbreaking achievements combating racial inequality in the 1950s and 60s. The also stated that they had no clue about what may have transpired between Garrett’s children in the 1970’s including the allegations of abuse they have been made aware of recently.

The interviews, transcripts, court rulings and media articles from the 1950s are what the film The Banker is based on. The team of The Banker ended the letter stating that they stand by the film and its positive message of empowerment.
