The list, it seems, is endless. As one writer put it, human beings are like pyramids whose differences can be found only in the top few layers of stone. The flags of the world are universally accepted symbols marking and celebrating the division and separation of the world's people. The Companion Flag, flown with the other flags of the world, will accomplish this goal. But the former is special.
Humanity is our common bond.
It is a part of each of us, yet the same for all, no matter where we live or how pronounced our differences. The Companion Flag is a symbol of our shared humanity. Its adoption will mark an historic moment of global self-recognition, mutual understanding, and respect.
