    An orange figure wearing a shirt and skirt with flowers and stars leaps across the image. Fire trails behind her head, hands, and body. The words, “Leaping towards Justice” circle around them.
    A black hand holds a red berry, these words circle around the hand: O sangue de amoreira pinta a rua vermelho escuro. Mas alguém pausa salvar uma fruta com consumo. (The blood of a mulberry paints the street dark red. But someone pauses to save the fruit with consumption.)
    A friendly, long brown dragon breathes tan fire and twists throughout the page. Five figures with black and white skin tones and black and white clothes hold onto the dragon in differing ways.
