Inclusive and Progress Pride Flags

Flags that revise the rainbow to make specific communities more explicitly visible within a shared Pride symbol. The lineage runs through Philadelphia’s 2017 More Color More Pride flag, Daniel Quasar’s 2018 Progress Pride Flag, and Valentino Vecchietti’s 2021 Intersex-Inclusive Pride Flag. These designs are interventions in an ongoing conversation about visibility and marginalization.
