A Black worker in postal uniform, wearing reflective shades and a sandwich board sign that says "CUPW Toronto Local, We demand a fair contract," raises one fist in the air and a flag on a stick in the other hand. The flag is only partially visible but includes the word "Justice." This person is standing up on something we can't see, a step or box. Smiling people around them are holding various banners and signs, some wear safety yellow. Variety in race and gender. In sunlight dappled by shade of tree.

A band performs in a union hall. The guitarist in front is a tall man in a red T-shirt with a design that starts "No Power" (his guitar blocks the rest of hte slogan" and the arm says "Stronger." There's a woman on bass, a man in a cowboy hat on drums, and a man holding an accordion sitting at a keyboard. Behind them is a yellow AFL-CIO banner. For some reason a black T-shirt is draped over a framed item on the wall.
