Pride Month begins, rainbow flags flown at public sites

cultureJun 1, 202616213,784

Cities and organizations marked the start of June by raising rainbow Pride flags at high-profile sites, including Rockefeller Center in New York City and Yakima City Hall in Washington. Groups paired the flag raisings with branded messaging and visuals, displaying Pride versions of their logos and images such as a hand holding a small rainbow flag labeled "happy pride" and a rainbow flag against a blue sky. The displays echo the flag's origin: activist and artist Gilbert Baker created the first Rainbow Flag in 1978 at Harvey Milk's request to give young LGBTQ people hope. These public flag raisings and branded displays matter because they make LGBTQ inclusion visible in civic spaces and signal institutional support for dignity, respect, and equality during Pride Month.

@lastpositivist.bsky.social

One day when I really want to get cancelled I'm gonna say that the basic idea of the rainbow flag including all the colours sufficed to signal "everyone" and the various editions to mean "but really really everyone this time we mean it" were trying to solve substantive cultural issues via symbolism.

2338d ago
Gregk Foley44

I'd hazard to say that 'trying to solve substantive cultural issues via symbolism' is probably a critique that someone who definitely isn't me might level at a lot of the thinking behind the social movements of the 2010s.

lastpositivist.bsky.social37

To be clear: I would never say this.

rimidar 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️21

Yeah, this is basically my take for better or for worse I understand like the combined one that integrate transgender pride and black/brown pride and intersex/ace pride and I guess it’s fair enough but honestly they’re just so visually noisy compared to 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ It is what it is

314chler.bsky.social20

in this purely hypothetical case I would agree with you and add that this is a good example of the paradox of how a cause can get smaller when people try to make it more inclusive

Liam Deane13

Imagine if someone wanted to get cancelled so much they generalised this thought to all efforts to enact progress via reform of language and symbols

Thoreau Away5

My sister wore a progress pride variation once where the extra colors were extra bars and not an inset, and it was so much more aesthetically pleasing, which was in fact why she chose it. She’s LGBT and an artist and I’m neither, so I was glad to see I wasn’t being a curmudgeon.

Tōgenkyō City Arborist4

I think it's a universal urge. See, shortly after the thin blue line flag debut, people were immediately like "what about firefighters, EMS, and grocery store loss prevention officers?" so now there are a bunch of rainbow variant lines.

notorious transfem supremacist2

This is why I still use the original pride flag. I reject the idea that the symbol of my identity that I used for a decade before the progress pride flag came around does not represent me.
