Disability Pride Hand Flags
I vend Disability Pride Hand Flags, which were designed by by Ann MacGill, a disabled artist who collaborated with the community in the process. She's asked that it be used widely and freely and put it in public domain. This is the symbolism:
"The Black Field: Represents our mourning for those of us (disabled people) who have suffered, lost their lives from Ableist violence, negligence, suicide and/ or eugenics.
The Parallel Stripes: These represent solidarity within the Disability Community, despite our differences. The Diagonal is intended to be in contrast to the vertical walls and horizontal ceilings that isolate us.
The Five Colors: These colors represent the diversity within disability and our experiences (Mental Illness, Neurodiversity, Invisible and Undiagnosed Disabilities, Physical Disability, and Sensory Disabilities).
