In honor of International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia, we are sharing Adejoke Tugbiyele’s monumental gay pride flag constructed from six gele, Nigerian women’s headscarves customarily worn at formal occasions as symbols of femininity, elegance, and prestige. Tugbiyele produced the banner shortly after the Nigerian government enacted legislation criminalizing same-sex relationships, resulting in widespread persecution of LGBTQ communities across the nation. The flag resists strict notions of gender and sexuality imposed by the state, instead affirming the coexistence of Nigerian heritage and queer identity. Redoubling the flag’s power as an object of defiance and dignity, Tugbiyele has since carried it in protests and gay pride parades in both Nigeria and the United States. #IDAHOTB
