"Distributed by Young Socialist Alliance, P.O. Box 471 Cooper Station, New York, New York 10003" printed along the bottom of the page.

Black and white poster contains a full page photograph of a group of men in a hallway lined with multiple overhead lights and radiators along the walls. The men hold long objects that appear to be sticks or bats and they are wearing clothing that covers most of their bodies and faces. A quote at top center reads, "We are not beasts, and we do not intend to be beaten or driven as such... What has happened here is but the sound before the fury of those who are oppressed." "ATTICA" is printed in large text at bottom center. The right side of the last letter 'A' is colored in with yellow marker.
