Gilbert Baker, an openly gay activist born in 1951, grew up in Parsons, Kansas, and went on to serve in the US army for about two years around 1970. After an honorable discharge, Gilbert taught himself to sew. In 1974, Baker met Harvey Milk, an influential gay leader, who three years later challenged Baker to come up with a symbol of pride for the gay community.

Baker is said to have gotten the idea for the rainbow flag from the Flag of the Races[10] in borrowing it from the Hippie movement of that time[11] largely influenced by pioneering gay activist Allen Ginsberg.

Anyone is free to take a wild guess as to which cult Harvey Milk and Allen ginsberg is part of
