A collage with an abstract background of swirling red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and cream. Positioned at the top one-third of the collage and also sitting in the background are realistic illustrations of an African Lily and Yellow Daylily. At the bottom two-thirds of the collage are a collection of black and white women's portraits. The portraits slightly overlap each other and are semi-transparent. Jarena Lee, Amanda Smith, and Zilpha Elaw are centered and are the largest figures appearing amongst the women. Directly in front of them are Bishops Mildred “Bonnie” Hines and Melanie Rogers-Miller. To the right are Victoria Ama Zormelo-Gorleku, Julia A. J. Foote, and Mary J. Small. To the left are Sojourner Truth, Harriet Tubman, and Florence Spearing Randolph.
