The original disability pride flag (the zig-zag version) was created by Ann Magill in 2019 and was a visual representation of the ups and downs that disabled people faced.

Magill altered the original zigzagged design for accessibility purposes in 2021. The zig-zag pattern and bold colours worsened symptoms for individuals with visually triggered disabilities, including seizure and migraine disorders. Magill’s updated design features muted colours and a straight diagonal band from the top left to the bottom right corner.

The meaning of the colours remains the same. The black background mourns disabled people who have died due to negligence, suicide, rebellion, illness, and eugenics. 

The stripe’s colour represents disability types:

Red: physical disabilities
Gold: cognitive and intellectual disabilities
White: non-visible and undiagnosed disabilities
Blue: psychiatric disabilities
Green: sensory disabilities
