June is Pride Month, and many of us see the rainbow-striped Pride flag at community events, parades, outside people’s homes, on crosswalks, and raised over Capitol buildings throughout the country. The flags serve as sociopolitical symbols of community membership, unity, and visibility, and have evolved over the years to promote greater inclusivity within lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and two-Spirit (LGBTQIA2-S) communities.

In addition to representing a variety of intersectional identities, the rainbow-striped flag is often seen as a symbol of remembrance of those who were victims of violence and discrimination in the past. This includes the victims of the Pulse nightclub massacre, and also those murdered by anti-LGBTQIA2-S hate groups.
Colorful Creations: Exploring the Artistry of Color Pride Painting and Their Portfolio
Color Pride Painting is a form of artistic expression that allows individuals to explore their identities, experiences, and emotions in a creative and visually captivating way. Using vibrant rainbow hues, which represent diversity and unity, as well as subtle pastels that stand for love and acceptance, each brush stroke tells a unique story.
This modern gay men’s flag was designed by Daniel Quasar in 2018, reimagining the previous Philadelphia and Seattle Pride flags. The reimagined design places the black, brown, light blue, pink, and white stripes toward the left of the flag to improve its legibility while better incorporating historically marginalized identities. It also represents an arrow that points towards progress in a more inclusive direction, echoing the Stonewall uprising and illustrating that work still needs to be done to reach true equality.
