Below the text, there is an emoji of the American flag, which is waving. The overall design is simple, with a stark contrast between the black background and the white text and flag.

"These funds will help not only Hybachi but also the broader community, as anyone who knows Hybachi knows that he is an incredibly giving and respected long-time community organizer and activist; he has volunteered an enormous amount of his time to mutual aid projects to help people in need–distributing food, literature, hygiene and health supplies, creating warming centers for houseless people on Chicago’s South Side, and more. He worked tirelessly in Chicago’s poor and low-income communities for years before he went to prison. He sees himself as a servant of the people, not only providing food and other necessities but also uplifting and educational reading material. His community service continues even while in prison; while incarcerated, he has helped people get their GED’s, advocated against abuse, advocated for reading material and inspired a passion for reading in countless other prisoners. He has built bridges of love and solidarity during his time in prison, organizing weekly book clubs and even assembling and teaching an African spirituality class and study group in the prison chapel."

in reply to Kerri • • •The image is a detailed pencil sketch of a person with their hand covering their face. The hand is prominently featured, with visible wrinkles and veins, suggesting age. The person's hair is tousled and partially obscures the face, with strands falling over the forehead. The hand is positioned to cover the eyes, with the thumb resting on the forehead and the fingers curled over the hair. The person is wearing a dark-colored garment with a high collar, adding to the somber tone of the image. The background is plain and unadorned, focusing attention on the subject. The artist's signature, "Kerri '25," is visible in the bottom right corner, indicating the year 2025. The overall composition is intimate and evocative, with a focus on the hand and the obscured face.
