A mural on a building wall depicts a woman with long hair, holding a child. They both have raised fists, symbolizing empowerment and strength. The woman has a flower in her hair and a vibrant shawl with a pattern resembling the American flag. Above them, the word 'EQUALITY' is inscribed within a circular frame.
A person wearing a mask and glasses holds up a cardboard sign that reads 'housing is racial justice.' The individual is standing in front of a large building with arched doorways and is wearing a shirt with text supporting Black women.
A large white and blue banner is stretched across a brick wall. The banner reads 'ELECTORAL COMMISSION ENSURING FREE AND FAIR ELECTIONS' with the logo of the Independent Electoral Commission of South Africa in the center. The surrounding area is shaded by trees.
