Walking through the Pride Zero Flags Project on Museumplein. Each flag marks one of the countries where homosexuality is still criminalised, every pole ribboned in mourning, every plinth naming the penalty. A sobering reminder that for too many worldwide, the fight for rights remains existential.

A row of national flags on white poles lining a paved path on Amsterdam’s Museumplein, each with a black mourning ribbon and a black plinth.
