Black and white image of a demonstration walking on an overpass above the freeway downtown. Many carry banners, including "Justice for Janitors" and "Could Your Family Live on $4.25?" in the center of the image two men -- one in sunglasses and a t-shirt holding a picket sign, the other an African American priest in his collar -- are walking and talking.
