Disability Pride Flag Explained

Let’s learn about the Disability Pride Flag! The original flag, created in 2019 by Ann Magill, had zigzag lines and bright colours to reflect how disabled people navigate a world not built for us. But it caused issues for people with migraines, epilepsy and some neurodivergent folk, especially on screens. It was a reminder that even within our own community, we’re still learning. And Ann listened. In 2021, she worked with disabled people to redesign the flag into the version we use today. The current flag features: 🟩 Green – sensory disabilities (like blindness and deafness) 🟦 Blue – mental illness ⬜ White – invisible and undiagnosed disabilities 🟨 Yellow – cognitive and intellectual disabilities, including neurodivergence 🟥 Red – physical disabilities ⬛ A charcoal background – to honour those we’ve lost to their conditions, ableism, and inaccessibility. The stripes are parallel to represent solidarity across one of the world’s most diverse minority groups. What does Disability Pride Month mean to you?
