Disability Rights Are Human Rights Pride Flag 32mm Button Badge - Activist Pin

£1.50

Digitally drawn Disability Rights Are Human Rights design using the updated disability pride flag. Available in a 32mm badge size

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: nonvisible and undiagnosed disabilities
Blue: psychiatric disabilities
Green: sensory disabilities
