Unlike the original rainbow Pride flag, Quasar’s flag is not in the public domain.īoth proposals for new pride flags are well-intended: a desire to create an inclusive visual symbol of the diverse LGBTQ+ community and raise awareness of those still marginalized within that community and the wider society. Quasar has since commercialized that design, selling a range of products featuring the Progress flag and licensing it to other manufacturers.
Quasar’s design has attracted a lot of buzz and a Kickstarter campaign to mass-produce the new flag raised almost twice as much as the original $14,000 goal. Xe (Quasar uses xe/xem pronouns) said the black stripe also represented, “ those living with AIDS, those no longer living, and the stigma surrounding them….” A PRIDE Flag Reboot.” CC (BY-NC-SA) license.
