![]() ![]() The current emoji keyboard only has two Pride flags: the original rainbow flag and the trans flag. The Gilbert Baker Foundation launched a petition to the Unicode Consortium to add 27 more Pride flags to the emoji index. Gilbert Baker, who passed in 2017, was a strong proponent for the development of these flags, encouraging people to fight for their representation. Since the creation of the original rainbow Pride Flag by Gilbert Baker, dozens of other Pride flags have been created, either adding more inclusivity to the rainbow flag, or unique flags that represent that multitude of other queer identities. The “Emojis of Pride” campaign is appealing to the Unicode Consortium, the governing body that approves or denies emojis for use, to include a broader assortment of Pride flags. The Gilbert Baker Foundation has partnered with Ogilvy New York on a new campaign to bring a more extensive array of Pride flag emojis to your keyboard.
