The Rainbow
Flag
The rainbow flag has become a recognized
symbol of the gay and lesbian community.
Use of the rainbow flag began in the 1970's, primarily on the
West Coast of America where it could be seen waving in the wind
during Gay Pride marches.
Today it is recognized throughout the USA and Europe as a symbol
of gay and lesbian pride.
The six colors of the rainbow represent the diversity of the gay
and lesbian community, a community that encompasses people from
all backgrounds, races, and national origins and that spans the
panoply of faiths and experience.
Every day is Flag Day when you fly a rainbow flag!
(Rainbow flags should be flown with the red stripe on top)
