Description
A protest sign mounted on a wooden post in front of a small, single-story house with boarded-up windows. The sign has a red and blue background with white text that reads:
"DISASTER AREA" (blue section)
"CITY FAILED US" (red section)
"TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION" (red section)
"FED. GOVT. HELP" (red section)
The house behind the sign has white siding, a gable roof, and boarded-up windows. A small front porch and shrubs are visible near the entrance. The atmosphere appears somber and abandoned.
