A black-and-white photograph depicts a man with light skin tone from the chest up, facing our left. He stands behind a wooden podium with microphones, his brow slightly furrowed and mouth open. His right hand is raised on our left, fingers curled inward. Strong light from our left illuminates his face, leaving the other side in shadow. Behind him, a light-colored banner with blurred letters fills the background.
