We studied 1,146 flags worldwide to see which colors dominate.
Out of 12 total colors, 8 are most common:
White (689), Yellow (613), Green (560), Red (540), Blue (396), Black (306), Gray (132), and Purple (88).

Surprised white leads the pack? Or is it exactly what you expected?

This is a really well thought-out survey on redesigns for an updated autistic pride flag! I believe it's open to everyone but obviously the input of autistic and neurodivergent people is especially significant. (I also like this survey because it takes the possible overlap with the Metis flag seriously)

Symbols matter, so consider contributing!

Google DocsAutistic pride flag survey round 2!In this survey, I'm going to ask you to rate 13 flag designs that have been proposed as autistic pride flags. You will get to see the results of the survey upon submitting. No questions are mandatory so if you run out of steam feel free to submit a partial response. You may edit your response after submitting but you will need to save the special URL google will provide you in order to do so. When you hit submit, right click "edit your response" and save that URL into a text file or somewhere else you'll find it again. This is the second in a series of surveys on autistic pride flags. You don't need to have done the first one to participate in this one! The previous one asked folks to rate over 50 flags on a general scale of 1-5. A shortlist of flags was made by picking the top rated designs from the first survey. This survey will ask you about the shortlisted flags, probing in greater detail about what people like or don't like about these flags. My goal is to help inform what people do and do not like in autism pride flags. Per feedback on the first survey, I will first give some background information that is relevant to the flags you'll be asked to rate.

One demonstrator holds a sign that says, "Liberty and Justice for All!"

Her sign includes the American Flag, the Ukrainian Flag, the Intersex Inclusive Progress Pride Flag, the Palestinian flag, and a Rainbow flag that says, "Black Lives Matter."

Another demonstrator holds a sign that says, "Be an American, not a Trumpkin."

His sign includes several small images of pumpkins decorated to look like Donald Trump in an unflattering way.

Leicestershire social workers object to Reform policy they fear ‘promotes exclusion and marginalisation’

Removing these flags promotes exclusion and marginalisation – it implies people represented by those flags are not welcome

More than 100 Leicestershire social workers have spoken out against a new Reform UK policy they fear “promotes exclusion and marginalisation”. Their comments follow a decision by Reform to change which flags can fly at the Leicestershire County Council headquarters, in Glenfield.

The new policy means that community flags, such as the Pride flag and the disabled people’s flag, will not automatically be raised in the inner quadrangle at County Hall to celebrate events and celebration days. Instead, a decision will be taken by the chief executive “following consultation with the leader of the council”, the party’s Dan Harrison, over whether they can fly or not, leading some to fear they will not be flown going forward.

Some 102 social workers at the council have now written to councillors and the new Reform cabinet to “loudly” and “overwhelmingly” oppose the change in policy. They said they felt that flying community flags was a “vitally important” symbol from the council that it was “supportive of marginalised groups”.
