Beyond the rainbow Find your own flavor of pride with this definitive guide to pride flags of all stripes?their history, meanings, legacies, and cultural significance around the world. A whole spectrum of stories has unfolded since the original rainbow flag debuted in the 1970s. For the first time, here are over 30 pride flags collected together, accompanied by details about their symbolism, creators, usage, and sometimes controversial histories. It's all presented with graphic flair by Icelandic designer and comedian Sindri Sparkle Freyr. If you're LGBTQ, you're likely familiar with your community flags, but you're not the only ones! Kinksters, bears, sex workers, and drag performers?there's a flag for you. If you're nonbinary, intersex, agender, genderqueer, disabled, polyamorous, two-spirt, ace-aro, or demi?you've got a flag, too. These flags and the motives behind them show us that there really is room for everyone. With both queer visibility and heteronormative hatred on the rise around the world, this bold, stylish celebration of vexillology (the study of flags!) shows how these symbols can help us share who we are, how we define ourselves, and where we find community.
