The poster has a white background overall. The top of the poster has text in black: "Stop The Land Grab!". The center of the poster has a stylized drawing of a large hand with a cuff that has white stars and a dollar sign as well as red stripes, grabbing at the land and pulling it up like fabric, disturbing a stream and a number of conical tents. The bottom of the poster has the text: "Support Indian Treaties / Congress is considering legislation to terminate all treaties between the U.S. / Government and the Indians. If these bills pass, it means the certain death of / the Indian people. Don't let this happen. Write your Congressman. / For further information write: / National Indian Coalition D.Q. University, P.O. Box 409, Davis, CA 95616". The upper left and lower right corners of the poster are stamped in red ink with a logo that combines a man's head in profile and a hand making a peace sign inside a circle that has the text: "1890 1973 Remember Wounded Knee".
