Against a purple background, yellow text reads, "G - gold star lesbian." On the right side of the image, there is a comic book drawing of a Black woman with an afro. She wears gold hoops, lipstick, a yellow turtleneck dress, a blue jacket with a red collar, and a red belt with a black and white buckle reading, "MN." She is at an angle, presumably leaning against a wall. Behind her, the background is pink.
