A Brief Evolution Of The Progress Pride Flag
a brief evolution of the progress pride flag
Daniel Quasar designed the original version (without the intersex circle) to place emphasis on parts of the queer community that don't get as much recognition: POC and trans people. Xe noted that the black stripe has a double meaning for AIDS. As well as it's celebrating rainbow people of colour, it also represents "those living with AIDS and the stigma and prejudice surrounding them, and those who have been lost to the disease".
Valentino Vecchietti, intersex advocate, added the intersex circle in 2021 to raise awareness for the intersex community.
AND WHILE RESEARCHING FOR THIS POST, I FOUND OUT THAT THEY MADE A DISABILITY INCLUSIVE FLAG THAT WAS UNVEILED AT LONDON PRIDE 2024.
You cannot fly these flags without supporting minorities and recognising that LGBTQ+ intersect with POC identities, remembering that trans people exist (including gender non-confirming trans people - that's what the white is), supporting intersex voices, and disabled people. Every single one of those communities intersect in some way.
Love,
a trans/non binary/gender-nonconforming, disabled, bisexual
ps, confession: when i first saw the progress pride flag I hated it, something about the arrow bugged me 😭 I love it now tho
