cripple punk flag // not a coining post
hey, so. in disability pride month/july 2021, i made a flag for cripple punk. i got feedback from a number of cripples on the design and wanted to make a post on it since it's this blog's icon. (sources on my website--photosensitivity warning, the background is a raining gif)
black field: mourning, crips of color
light blue: history, joy, invisible disabilities
gold: perseverance, culture, success
red: strength, life, determination
dark blue: accessibility, mobility aid users, community
triangle pattern: unconventional problem solving, overlapping experiences
to be crystal clear, this is not a new flag. it's over two years old, i just didn't share it on tumblr. if you are a cripple, you are free to use this! i'd love to be tagged in anything you use it for though, just to see it.
ableds can reblog if they use the tag #i’m able bodied
