The Rainbow Flag was created in 1978 by political activist and flag designer Gilbert Baker. Baker found the inspiration to create a new, revolutionary symbol for the LGTBQ+ community: the Rainbow Flag. The original Flag had 8 colors, each containing their own meaning, hand-dyed, and stitched by thirty volunteers for the San Francisco Gay Freedom Day Parade celebration on June 25, 1978. A new version was then created with six colors instead of eight, to simplify the making of the flag as well as lower the cost.
