With beaming pride, the National Museum of the Philippines (NMP) raises the Progress Flag in the NMP Complex in Manila for Pride Month!
Designed in 2018 by non-binary American artist and designer Daniel Quasar, the Progress Flag includes a base of the six-colored Rainbow Flag, the hallmark symbol of (LGBTQIA+) pride.
In addition, it also features five arrow-shaped lines to put a greater emphasis on the inclusion of marginalized people of color, trans people, people living with HIV, and those who have been lost, recognizing the diversity of the LGBTQIA+ community and calling for a more inclusive society.
The display of these flags is a gesture of the NMP’s strong commitment to promoting gender equality and allyship with our LGBTQI+ brothers and sisters—not just in the Philippines—but also around the world!
