Happy Pride Month #HappyPrideMonth

LGBT Pride Month is celebrated to commemorate the Stonewall riots, which occurred at the end of June in the year 1969. Therefore, various pride events are organized during this month with an aim to recognize the impact of LGBTQ people on the world.

In 1978, the artist Gilbert Baker, an openly gay man, and a drag queen designed the first rainbow flag. Baker had revealed that Harvey Milk had urged him to create a symbol of pride for the gay community.

Harvey Milk was one of the first openly gay elected officials in the U.S. and he had appointed Baker for the job. Baker used the flag as a symbol because he saw flags as the most powerful symbol of pride.

Baker saw the rainbow as a natural flag from the sky and adopted the pride flag colors in eight colors with the stripes, each color had its own meaning (hot pink for sex, red for life, orange for healing, yellow for sunlight, green for nature, turquoise for art, indigo for harmony, and violet for spirit).
