A horizontally oriented black-and-white photograph depicts a dense crowd of protesters on a city street. In the foreground, a woman with a light skin tone and glasses has an arm draped over her shoulder. To the right, a hand-lettered sign reads "HAVE NO FEAR WE'RE ONLY QUEER IN YOUR EYES" above an eye drawing. Other protesters carry "GAY PRIDE" and "WOMEN'S LIBERATION" signs against a background of brick buildings.
