Morphine Prince 109,766 Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share Posted June 10, 2017 My thoughts, correct me if I'm wrong: The rainbow flag is supposed to represent a spectrum of different people that are part of the LGBT community. It is not based on skin color, religion, or any other factor. Besides, an actual RAINBOW, a natural phenomenon, does not include the colors being proposed.

Lady Palutena 3,147 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Weren't the other colors turquoise and pink though? Add those back, if anything, after all, the only reason they were removed were lack of availability in fabric. As a person of color, I do not support this decision and the design looks tacky with black and brown added... Adoremus in caelum, Palutena. Dea luminis.

What are you talking about? i'm talking about representation in media. what i'm saying is that due to the lack of representation, i understand why people of color would feel excluded of the LGBT community and therefore seek a way to make themselves and their issues more visible. not that i support it, because the flag would look terrible with more colors on it, but i understand where this is coming from and i think it's an issue that needs fixing.

RAMROD 117,507 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Since when rainbows have black and rainbows? Besides, rainbows supposed to represent POC too, since most often than not, LGBTQ in POc community are hated by their own race group too and they usually find shelter and family within the LGBTQ community.
