Progress Pride Flagge

Be proud of this new symbol of pride and unity! This version of the classic Pride flag represents both the diversity of our community and the progress we have made through mutual support. Wave it on your balcony, at your front door, wear it as a cape, or simply carry it with you at your protest, demonstration, walk, or any other celebration of LGBTQ life. A flag is a great way to show what you stand for! The first Pride flag was raised in 1978 in San Francisco during the Pride event. It was created because the pink triangle was still the only symbol representing the gay community at that time, and a new symbol was needed because of its tragic history and sad associations to inspire and mobilize the community. The rainbow flag quickly caught on and was used year after year as a symbol of peace and unity for the LGBTQ+ community. After about five different versions and 40 years, we now have the Progress Pride Flag you see today! It was created in 2018, but it was not until the social media and the uprising of the BLM movement in 2020 that this new flag found its way into our hands and hearts. The Progress Pride Flag is the symbol of unity for the LGBTQ+ community, as it recognizes and visibly includes queer People of Color and the Trans community in its stripes. Progress is both the meaning of the flag and what we as a community hope to achieve in making the world safer and better for all LGBTQ+ people.
