As LGBT+ History Month continues, this week’s Book of the Week is ‘Sewing the Rainbow: A Story About Gilbert Baker’, which tells the story of how a young boy from Kansas grew up to create the now world-famous Rainbow Flag, giving it to the world for free, and without trademark, as a gift to LGBT communities everywhere.
