Poster printed with black, red, and blue ink on white paper. An image of a person raising their fist in the air through red vertical stripes of an American flag design appears at center. Figures in black silhouette wearing helmets and carrying a rifle appear at the bottom of the flag and blend into an overall black background. "ATTICA / a film by Cinda Firestone / A Tricontinental Film Center Release" appears in white font at bottom right. A quote across the top of the page from the New York Times reads, "...an exceptionally moving, outraged recollection..." A white band across the bottom edge of the page contains the handwritten text, "Friday Nov. 17 / 8PM USF Law School / Benefit for the Attica Committee to Free Dacatewiah / -suggested donation $1.50."
