Disability Garden Flag
Ways to rock it:
🏴 18" x 12" Disability garden flag with pole pocket and double stitched edges to reduce fraying.
✍️ The Design: The original Disability Pride Flag was created by Ann Magill, a disabled woman, and was a set of zigzag lines on a black background. In 2021, she, with help of the disabled community, updated the flag to this new design. The colors have been muted and rearranged to reduce eye strain, and each stripe also has a slightly different level of brightness (brightest in the center and darkening outward), so that even those with some form of color blindness can distinguish the stripes. The design includes:
-
Having All Six "Standard" Flag Colors: signifying that Disability Community is pan-national, spanning borders between states and nations.
-
The Black Field: Mourning and rage for victims of ableist violence and abuse
-
The Diagonal Band: "Cutting across" the walls and barriers that separate the disabled from normate society, also light and creativity cutting through the darkness
-
The White Stripe: Invisible and Undiagnosed Disabilities
-
The Red Stripe: Physical Disabilities
-
The Gold Stripe: Neurodivergence
-
The Blue Stripe: Psychiatric Disabilities
-
The Green Stripe: Sensory Disabilities
Our garden flags are double-sided so you can see the design from either side. They are constructed of three layers, two art layers sandwiching a blackout fabric in between.
