People of colour were always included under the rainbow flag. Mandela's - Rainbow nation. Jesse Jackson's Rainbow Coalition. New flag is simply odd. In an attempt to be inclusive it manages to be anything but.

I think it's a good idea. There is unfortunately a great deal of racism in the LGBTQ+ community so it's good to remind others. It harms no one and it's OK for us to grow and change.

The
Flag has been changed before, but not in such a manner where it highlights anyone over anyone else because of their race.
represents unity, & adding the black & brown feels like separation to me.

But the other 6 colours aren't to represent other skin types? The flag isn't to represent race, it's to represent unity, and EVERYONE is apart of it. Adding race to the flag is creating a bigger division in the community

I know what they're trying to do but I just don't think its necessary. The 6 colour rainbow has always represented all people. If the new one represents ppl with Brown skin... where is the pasty off white colour of my skin??

Oh fgs it's just a flag, some people need to remember to pick their battles and give their energy to supporting and not dividing our communities.
