In 2017, a group called More Color More Pride added two extra stripes of black and brown to the flag to better represent people of color who are part of the community. Then, in 2018, graphic designer Daniel Quasar has added a five-colored chevron to the flag, according to Dezeen. The flag includes black and brown stripes to represent marginalized LGBT communities of color, along with the colors pink, light blue, and white, which are used on the Transgender Pride Flag, the outlet noted.
