The Background of the Rainbow Flag, the Symbol of Pride Month

Rainbow the symbol of Pride month was designed by Gilbert Baker, an American artist and activist. Gilbert created the rainbow flag as he thought that LGBTs should have their own flags and decided to pick rainbow colors in order to reflect the diversity of LGBT community. The flag was first released and used on June 25, 1978. The meanings of each color on the Pride flag are as follows.

 

• Red stands for fighting or life.
• Orange stands for healing.
• Yellow stands for bight sun.
• Green stands for nature.
• Indigo stands for arts and harmony.
• Violet stands for LGBTQ spirit.

The different pieces of the leathers are sewed neatly and closely as if they were the same piece. This is like the variety of people gathering under the rainbow flags in Pride event. They are from different places and have different dreams; however, they can live in the same society because they respect the differences and the liberty in self-expression of each other.
