In 1978, Harvey Milk asked Gilbert Baker to create a unifying symbol for the growing gay rights movement, and on June 25 of that year, Baker's Rainbow Flag debuted at San Francisco's Gay Freedom Day Parade. Baker had no idea his creation would become an international emblem of liberation and inclusiveness, forever cementing his pivotal role in helping to define the modern LGBTQ movement.

Rainbow Warrior is Baker's passionate personal chronicle, from a childhood in 1950s Kansas, to a harrowing stint in the US Army, and finally his arrival in San Francisco, where he bloomed as both a visual artist and social justice activist.

His fascinating story weaves through the early years of the struggle for LGBTQ rights, when he worked closely with Milk, Cleve Jones, and the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. Gilbert Baker often called himself the "Gay Betsy Ross," and readers of his colorful, irreverent, and deeply personal memoir will find it difficult to disagree.

Reviews For The Book

"A moving, educative memoir from one of the innovators of the gay liberation movement." --Kirkus Reviews

"Gilbert Baker paved the way for LGBTQ activists around the world--myself included. As the openly gay and HIV-positive Speaker of the New York City Council, I owe my career and life to people like Gilbert Baker. I am grateful the world will finally get to read his story."--Corey Johnson, Speaker of the New York City Council

"Gilbert Baker's grand visions as an artist and activist entertained all who knew him and truly advanced the global LGBTQ movement. In creating the Rainbow Flag, he gave the world an iconic symbol. This powerful memoir is his final gift. He was my friend and ally in the struggle for equality and I loved him very much." --Cleve Jones, activist and creator of the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt

"With infectious charisma and unadulterated exhilaration, Gilbert Baker intertwines the history of the Rainbow Flag and of the LGBTQ movement with the narration of his own sinuous life. If a sense of urgency and necessity, serendipity, intuition, and talent are the ingredients of great design, this is the autobiography of an accidental design superstar." --Paola Antonelli, Senior Curator, Architecture & Design, the Museum of Modern Art

I have found my face wash i’ve been doing skincare since I was 13. I’m now 25 and I can tell you. I finally found a face that I feel like has made a difference. I don’t have acne prone skin, but my pores and stuff. I’m very insecure about even though I’m probably just nitpicking, but I feel like this face wash has honestly helped so much with matting and making my face look flawless

Best cleanser for oily skin!!!!
I've been using Good Molecules products on my face for the past year and this brand truly does deliver quality for a good price. I purchased this cleanser about a month ago and started using it and fell in love with it. I accidentally left it at a friend's house this past weekend and immediately reordered when I got home. I've always dealt with oily skin issues. I use it in the morning and my face is significantly less oily the entire day. This is now a staple in my skincare routine! 😀

Helped Tighten My Skin & Minimize Pores
Color: Cyano Pink Spicule, Color: Cyano Pink Spicule
I’ve loved the Dr. Melaxin Cyano Pink Spicule Serum! The bottle is small, but it lasted me around 6 months since I only use one pump every other night. When I first started using it, I noticed a tingling sensation, but over time my skin adjusted and I barely notice it now. I’ve definitely seen my pores appear smaller and my skin feels tighter and smoother after using it.
