This gay pride patch takes its inspiration from the story of Alan Turing, a genius mathematician, computer scientist, and the BBC’s Greatest Person of the 20th century.
Turing was persecuted by the British government for engaging in a same-sex relationship and forced to undergo chemical castration. Following this ordeal Turing was found dead with a half-eaten cyanide-laced apple nearby - hence the apple symbol.
While the popular myth that Apple inc. founders were inspired by Turing when designing the Apple logo is unfortunately just that - a myth - the rainbow apple honors Turing and has become an emblem of defiance in the face of oppression and persecution. Wear this patch and pay homage to this inspirational figure.
Make your possessions as fabulous as you are with this colorful patch that you can iron-on or sew to any garment. Perfect for jeans, jackets, vests, hats, backpacks, scrapbooking, and more.
