Disability Pride

The disability pride flag is a pride flag consisting of a gray background with five diagonal stripes of red, gold, white, blue, and green. The original flag was created in 2019 by Ann Magill, a disabled woman, and featured a zigzag or lightning bolt design, but after receiving input from people with visually triggering disabilities, the flag was changed in 2021 to have muted colors and straight diagonal stripes.
== Symbolism ==
The gray background represents mourning for victims of ableist violence and abuse, the red stripe represents physical disabilities, the gold stripe represents neurodivergence, the white stripes represents invisible and undiagnosed disabilities, the blue stripe represents psychiatric disabilities, and the green stripe represents sensory disabilities. The six colors of the flag represents the fact that disability spans borders between states and nations, and the diagonal stripe is "cutting across" the walls and barriers that separate disabled people from society.
== Original flag ==
The original disability pride flag consisted of a black background with five zigzagged stripes of blue, gold, white, red, and green. It was designed by Ann Magill in 2019, and was changed in 2021 to the current design. 
=== Symbolism ===
The black background represents mourning for those who've suffered and died from ableist violence, and also rebellion. The zigzag band represents how disabled people must move around and past barriers, and the creativity in doing so. The five colors represents the variety of disability, the needs and experiences (mental illness, neurodiversity, invisible and undiagnosed disabilities, physical disability, and sensory disabilities), and the parallel stripes represents the solidarity within the disability community, despite the differences.
