A group of young people crosses a street at a marked crosswalk, with the "walk" sign on. Behind them, TriMet's special Pride-themed bus passes through the intersection. It is covered with rainbow stripes, and has the text "Celebrating LGBTQ+ History and Leaders" along the top of the bus. At the bottom are seen black and white portraits of local equal rights champions Gail Shibley, Kathleen Saadat and Jeana Frazzini.
