History
The Queer Ally Flag represents people who are not queer themselves but openly stand with queer people, where 'queer' is an umbrella word for anyone whose sexuality or gender does not fit straight or cisgender norms. The flag emerged from online LGBTQ+ communities as a way for allies to specifically signal support for the queer community at pride events and in everyday life. The colors are blue, green, brown, cyan, purple, red, orange, pink, yellow, white, and black.
