Representation Pillows
Description: This happy be-hatted buddy is one in a colorful collection of floating turtle friends, each being suspended by a unique balloon cluster in colors representative of various identities. This specific buddy's balloons are in the colors of the Disability Pride Flag. Below is a brief history of the flag's origin: The original Disability Pride flag was created in 2019 by writer Ann Magill, who has cerebral palsy. Magill had attended an event for the 20th anniversary of the ADA and was disappointed that it was confined to the basement and grounds of an independent living center — instead of out in public. The experience motivated her to create a Disability Pride Flag.
