History

LGBTQ+ people are those whose sexual orientations or gender identities fall outside straight and cisgender norms. Gilbert Baker designed the original eight-stripe rainbow pride flag in 1978 in San Francisco, with stripes for sexuality (pink), life (red), healing (orange), sunlight (yellow), serenity (green), magic (turquoise), harmony (blue), and spirit (purple). This early variant adds a star-filled canton to Baker's foundational design. The colors are hot pink, red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, blue, purple, and white.
