LGBTQ+ Progress (Intersex-Inclusive), Pride Flag Buttons
Given the evolving nature of the LGBTQ+ community and society at large, the Progress Pride Flag integrates many of these flags into one. Thankfully, it has been redesigned to place a greater emphasis on “inclusion and progression.” Our community is such a huge umbrella of different kind of people and that is what makes us so special, that is what makes us so unique and that is what makes us so powerful.
The modern pride flag now includes stripes to represent the experiences of people of color, as well as stripes to represent people who identify as transgender, gender nonconforming (GNC) and/or undefined.
Daniel Quasar’s flag includes the colors of the trans flag, as well as black and brown stripes harkening back to 2017 Philadelphia Pride Flag, which sought to further represent the queer and trans identities of black and brown people. Those two stripes also represent those living with HIV/AIDS, people who have passed from the virus and the overall stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS that remains today.
In 2021, the Progress Pride Flag was revised by Valentino Vecchietti of Intersex Equality Rights UK to incorporate the intersex flag. In the new design, the chevron of the Progress Flag includes a yellow triangle with a purple circle in the middle.
Red equals life
Orange symbolizes healing
Yellow stands for sunlight
Green represents nature|
Indigo stands for serenity
Violet represents the spirit of LGBTQ+ people
Black and brown represents people of colour
Pink, light blue and white represents transgender, gender non-binary, intersex and those across the gender spectrum.
Purple circle and yellow triangle reference to the Intersex pride flag that was created in 2013 by Morgan Carpenter.
