July is Disability Pride Month - we are celebrating 34 years of the Americans with Disabilities Act! Disability Pride Month is celebrated every July and is an opportunity to honor the history, achievements, experiences, and struggles of the disability community. The Disability Pride Flag, initially designed in 2019 by Ann Magill, was created to encompass all disabilities. It was revised in 2021 with community input, and is now in the public domain. Within the flag, each color stripe has a meaning: Red - physical disabilities; Gold - neurodiversity; White - invisible disabilities and disabilities that haven't yet been diagnosed; Blue - emotional and psychiatric disabilities, including mental illness, anxiety, and depression; Green - for sensory disabilities, including deafness, blindness, lack of smell, lack of taste, audio processing disorder, and all other sensory disabilities. The faded black background mourning and rage for victims of ableist violence and abuse. The diagonal Bband cuts across the walls and barriers that separate the disabled from normate society, also representing light and creativity cutting through the darkness.
