- "The logo of the Harambee Ombudsman Project is illustrated on the front of the poster."--Verso.
- "'Harambee' is the Swahili word for 'pulling together.' It has also become, since the mid-1970s, the most widely used name for a neighborhood on Milwaukee's North Side. Draped across a steep ridge overlooking Downtown, the Harambee area is a community of historic homes, strong churches, and more than 20,000 people. Its name signifies two things: the African heritage of most residents, and a new spirit of 'pulling together' that has taken root in an old neighborhood."--Verso.
- Includes text, illustrations and Harambee area street map indexed to points of interest on verso.
