Julian Bond at a podium in front of the United States Capitol (just a portion of the building, including some windows, can be seen). He is looking down, possibly reading from a prepared speech. His hair is short and grey and he is wearing glasses. He is wearing a white shirt with a tie that has many colorful stripes and a dark suit jacket. On the front of the podium is a poster that says National Equality March at the top, with a picture of the Capitol and rainbow colors emanating from it. It is partially obscured by the crowd listening to him speak.
