The image shows a group of African women and children standing in a line in front of a building. The women are wearing traditional headscarves in different colors and styles, including red, yellow, and purple. Some of the women are holding babies, while others are looking at the camera. The children are of different ages and ethnicities. The building in the background appears to be made of concrete and has a sloping roof. The overall mood of the image is one of poverty and hardship.
