Yellowed print of a photograph on newsprint. The photograph depicts a group of women-presenting people walking in the center of a road with a line of women-presenting people facing them and clapping. The people at the front of the group of walkers is a group of five women-presenting people holding a large fabric banner featuring two large women's symbols on either side of a large image of the outlines of the east coast US states, from North Carolina north to New York. Along the edges of each women's symbol, respectively, reads, "Women's Peace Walk" and "Durham - Seneca." In the space inside the "circle" of each symbol appears to be an image of a peace dove. The women holding the banner all appear to be white, aside from Mandy Carter, who is African American. The remaining women-presenting people on the walk, as well as those cheering in the crowd along the street and taking pictures of the walkers, also present as white or light-skinned.
