The B Side of History is hand sewn from a cotton collar shirt, blue worker shirt, cotton velvet, heat stamped foil, acrylic, thread, buttons, and metallic bullion fringe. This flag was an experimental model for Flaggot, an early flag made in support of LGBTQ+ rights that currently hangs at the US Embassy in London and was officially presented at Parliament in 2012 during international gay pride. It is made from the actual clothing of gay people of all walks of life and their admirers.
