I have seen many embroidered patches using many color combinations of this
flag. There is a Black and Harley Orange version of The POW MIA. I'll let you imagine it - it's orange in place of red.

Sabina Hills, 6 December 2020
The Civil Rights US-Flag was designed to create awareness for Americans to
display as a symbol of their commitment to the concepts of freedom, equality,
and justice for all. While the days of slavery are long behind us, our Nation is
clearly not free from discrimination and oppression on many levels, and the
complexities of this reality were dramatically brought to light by the video of
George Floyd’s death. The Civil Rights US-Flag design is not meant to add to the
divisive atmosphere. Instead, its purpose is to help keep a laser focus on the
problem; and it is giving people a chance to show their solidarity, and
encourage the kind of productive dialogue that will move us forward toward
meaningful solutions rather than splitting us further apart.
United Despite Our Differences
To create the Civil Rights US Flag,
we used our National Flag as the basis. This Flag already symbolizes those who
chose to stay for the American Experiment. It represents a place of hope—a
melting pot offering equal civil rights to all. The Civil Rights US Flag differs
from the National Flag because of the colorful stars. The colors include our
various skin tones, red, brown, white, black, and yellow. It's the far too long
missing part of our Flag, it makes visible, how our country looks like, which
makes us so special compared to many other Countries.
The Civil
Rights US-Flag celebrates our Beauty of Diversity!
The wonderful
idea of the American Experiment that is based on immigration inspired us, to
design and express how can a flag unite us as citizens, of all colors and
backgrounds, peacefully. The presentation from left to the right is in order of
the first arrival of various groups on the American continent and also the
Hawaiian Islands. Therefore we chose for the first star to be red on purpose
because it represents Native Americans (First Nations) and our respect for their
Human Rights as well as their land rights. Since they were in America first, we
thought it would only be right to give their star a special place on the flag.
Then we added the colors of our various skin tones, brown, white, black, and
yellow, in order of the first arrival of various groups to the U.S.
Explanation:
Red stands for the First Nation / Native
Americans
Brown stands for Polynesian / Spaniards
White stands for
Spaniards* / Europeans
Black stands for Africans
Yellow stands for Asians
* Spaniards are named twice because some call themselves brown others themselves
white.
Every group is represented by the same number of stars to show
that we are all equal. The diversity of all the stars coming together shows a
beautiful whole picture of the United States—many people from many backgrounds,
all equal, living united in justice and peace.
Now the new Civil Rights
US-Flag differs from the National Flag by the brightly different, skin-colored
stars, a part that has been missing for too long. It is a symbol that good and
justice can transcend hatred and discrimination. Show Your Support with a Civil
Rights US Flag
The movement behind the Civil Rights US flag is meant to
inspire and motivate people to fight for each other. We believe in the good of
people and the power to overcome our differences.
Other groups the stars
represent include:
Members of the LGBTQ+ community
People of all genders
People of all faiths and religion
People of all socioeconomic backgrounds
People of all disabilities and abilities
People of all shapes and sizes
People of all ages

End of Trail flag
image by Rick Prohaska, 16 August 2007
A USA flag with native American end of the trail print.
The "Native American end of trail print" is actually based on the sculpture "End of The Trail" by James Earle Fraser. It's a fairly iconic image, also used previously (among other places) on the cover of the Beach Boys' album "Surf's Up".
