Throughout history, being different has often been dangerous, and people can't always be open about how they want to dress, what gender they are,and who they love... Within these pages you'll learn about how LGBTQIA2S+ people have used signs and symbols historically to communicate with each other, create safe spaces, and celebrate who they are! You'll recognize the rainbow flags of Pride Month, but what about the labrys, the lambda, or the lavender rhino? This illustrated guide takes you on a journey through everything from the green carnations of Oscar Wilde and the violets of Sappho to the black rings of asexuality and the reclaimed pink triangles of persecution. A guide for children aged 5+ to the visual worlds of queer life.
