Over the past few<br />

years, you may<br />

have seen<br />

different LGBTQ+<br />

flags be<br />

introduced, this<br />

has been to show<br />

the progress of inclusion. We all know the<br />

original pride flag, but recently the progress<br />

pride flag has become popular. The progress<br />

pride flag is the one we and <strong>Sheffield</strong> <strong>United</strong><br />

use wherever possible.<br />

The Pride flag was created by American<br />

artist and gay rights activist Gilbert Baker, and<br />

first displayed in 1978 to be a symbol for the<br />

LGBT community.<br />

40 years later the progress pride flag was<br />

launched. It included black, brown, pink,<br />

pale blue and white stripes, to represent<br />

marginalised people of colour in the LGBTQ+<br />

community, as well as the trans community.<br />

“The arrow points to the right to show<br />

forward movement, while being along the<br />

left edge shows that progress still needs<br />

to be made,” explained progress pride flag<br />

artist, Daniel Quasar.<br />

The progress pride flag is a recognised<br />

symbol of hope and inclusion for the LGBTQ+<br />

community. A symbol we and <strong>Sheffield</strong> <strong>United</strong><br />

will continue to use to help make Bramall<br />

Lane a welcoming place for all Blades.<br />
