The Rainbow Pride Flag.

Designed by artist and activist Gilbert Baker in 1978 is considered one of the greatest works of art of the 20th century.

It has become the symbol of LGBTQ hope and unity that queer pioneers like Harvey Milk asked for, but not without a little,

controversy. Gilbert Baker considered the flag an unfinished work of political art and encouraged

others to design their own versions, like the leather or trans pride flags, so he never copyrighted

the design. Unfortunately, some businesses and politicians have also used the flag as a selling point for their own agenda,

which doesn't always align with queer liberation.

Designer and Cooking with Drag Queen's title sequence animator, Daniel Quasar, created a version he calls the Progress Pride Flag, a design that

included elements from the Philadelphia people of color inclusive flag and the trans pride flag

in a chevron overlaid on top of the traditional rainbow pride flag to draw attention to the needs

of trans folks and people of color

in our community. Today, designer Daniel Quasar joins us to talk about creating the progress

pride flag, how it went viral overnight and why it resonated with people all around the world.

Plus, how many stripes and colors can you fit onto a rainbow flag?
