I told them that term itself I am familiar with, but not the flag. The term, as defined by Wikipedia, is "a modern, pan-Indian umbrella term used by some Indigenous North Americans to describe Native people in their communities who fulfill a traditional third-gender (or other gender-variant) ceremonial and social role in their cultures." Zachary Harden, 13 September 2023 Source: Two-spirit - Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-spirit Rainbow flag variant image by Zachary Harden, 13 September 2023 The flag itself was first designed in 2016 from a user on Tumblr by the username "2Sanon". It is not known to me if the real name of the user is public information. The design itself is the traditional LGBT flag with two feathers charged in the center. "The two feathers represent woman and man, and the circle represents unity in one," according to the author. The central device can be used on other Pride flags and the linked post/source gives examples of where they can be used. This design is used in Canada, at least, with the use by the University of Waterloo in Manitoba.

In June 2023, it was used at the Two-Spirit Powwow in Spokane, Washington: https://www.inlander.com/culture/spokanes-first-two-spirit-powwow-celebrates-inclusivity-at-the-intersection-of-race-and-gender-26090096. Tomislav Todorović, 13 September 2023 Another, more complex variant of the two feathers symbol exists as well. So far, it was used only on the Rainbow Flag, the examples of its use including: Utah Pride 2019, Salt Lake City: https://www.davd.photo/utah-pride-2019-photos/ (image: https://i0.wp.com/www.davd.photo/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/utah-pride-2019-photos-1.jpg) Pride Month 2021, Fort Erie, Ontario: https://www.niagarathisweek.com/news/two-spirit-pride-flag-raised-at-fort-erie-native-friendship-centre/article_08eb8771-aeea-5f10-a12d-bf622d73e0f3.html LGBTQ2S+ gathering in Edmonton, Alberta, on 13 May 2022: https://globalnews.ca/news/8903907/two-spirit-indigenous-colonization-lgbtq-inside-pride/ Pride London, Ontario 2022: https://www.dcaclondon.ca/pride-london-ont-2022/ (image 1: https://www.dcaclondon.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/DCAC_Pride_2022-3402-scaled.jpg) (image 2: https://www.dcaclondon.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/DCAC_Pride_2022-3408-scaled.jpg) Tomislav Todorović, 14 September 2023 Progress Pride variant image by Zachary Harden, 13 September 2023 The flag itself was first designed in 2016 from a user on Tumblr by the username "2Sanon".

Tomislav Todorović, 13 September 2023 New Progress Pride variant image by Zachary Harden, 13 September 2023 The design was also added to the New Progress Pride flag and used in June 2022 by Cambrian College in Sudbury, ON: https://cambriancollege.ca/news/2022/06/cambrian-college-opens-new-pride-centre-unveils-new-pride-flag/ (image: https://marvel-b1-cdn.bc0a.com/f00000000165730/cambriancollege.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Pride-Progress-Flag-700x936.jpg) * note the yellow field at the flag hoist. Tomislav Todorović, 13 September 2023 Another variant of the New Progress Pride flag, with smaller feathers (fitting completely into two rainbow stripes, yellow and green) superimposed over white infinity symbol to include the representation of Métis people, photographed in Alberta (no information on the precise location): https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/pride-flags-schools-1.6861990. Tomislav Todorović, 14 September 2023 Transgender variant image by Zachary Harden, 13 September 2023 Another flag to which it was added is the transgender flag by Monica Helms, which has been used by the Maskwacis people of Alberta: https://www.aptnnews.ca/national-news/reaction-from-survivors-apology-pope-francis-maskwacis-alberta/attachment/jack-saddleback-holding-two-spirit-flag/. Tomislav Todorović, 13 September 2023 I would say that the flag with the transgender colors in the background would be most appropriate, as that is what most users of the flag are trying to convey. Also, I'm pretty sure that the concept of a third gender in Native American cultures is a very modern invention and not an ancient concept. The first real mentions I can find of it are from the 1990s and early 2000s, although some claim it is older. Samuel Edwards, 13 September 2023
