Gilbert Baker Rainbow Flag Ladies T Shirt

Picture it: San Francisco, 1974. An artist, activist, and openly gay military veteran named Gilbert Baker meets fellow activist, future politician, and LGBTQ hero Harvey Milk. Three years later, Milk challenges Baker to create a symbol for the gay community, and the end product is the first rainbow LGBTQ flag. Each of the eight colors had a meaning:

Pink: Sex

Red: Life

Orange: Healing

Yellow: Sunlight

Green: Nature

Turquoise: Magic/Art

Indigo: Serenity

Violet: Spirit
