Since Gilbert Baker first created the original rainbow Pride flag back in 1978, designers and activists of all genders, identities, and sexual orientations have made different iterations to reflect unique communities.
It's also a celebration of the beauty and diversity of the experience, flown at Pride events all throughout the month of June. Over the past 40-plus years, the rainbow Pride flag has become a symbol synonymous with the LGBTQ+ community and its fight for equal rights and acceptance across the globe.
