Flossmoor celebrates Black History Month by flying the Pan African Flag

Why this flag?The Village of Flossmoor proudly celebrates Black History Month, a month during which we recognize the accomplishments and contributions of Black Americans to our national landscape. This month, we display the Pan African flag (also referred to as the RBG or Black Liberation Flag) throughout our downtown.

The colors of red, black and green, which have become associated with Black History Month, are symbols of solidarity for the African diaspora, which means those around the world who share African ancestry.
