Poster printed with red, green, and black ink on white paper. A quote by Bob Marley is printed in red font at top: "How Long Shall They Kill Our Prophets While We Stand Aside and Look?" A black and white photograph of two men in uniform sitting beside each other appears below. The man at right, Maurice Bishop, places his hand on Samora Machel's knee at left. Samora places his hand over Bishop's hand, and both men smile at each other. Other men are visible sitting behind them in the background and a banner with "United" and other obstructed text is visible at top. The photo caption reads, "African Liberation Day, Grenada May 23, 1982." Below the photograph text is divided into two columns. Text reads, "Samora Machel / President of Mozambique / Assassinated October 19, 1986" and "Maurice Bishop / Prime Minister of Grenada / Assassinated October 19, 1983." "Forward ever, Backward Never! / A Luta Continua!" is printed in large green font at bottom.
