In a domestic interior, Lois Gibbs in a white “LOVE CANAL: Another Product from HOOKER CHEMICAL” T-shirt stands near a table holding a knife and facing a decorated cake. Another person in a red shirt stands nearby holding a plate. In the background, a third person is partially visible through a doorway, making a peace sign gesture with both hands and smiling widely. The scene appears to be informal and light-hearted, despite the serious message on the shirt.
