Commissioned in 2019 by the President of the Bronzeville Neighborhood Association Willis Brown. Columbus Historian Rita Fuller-Yates set forth a design concept reflective of the community and all that it stands for. Mrs. Fuller-Yates along with her Husband Shawn Yates received final approval of the design on March 6th, 2020.

The colors within the flag have specific meaning:
Black - for the people of Bronzeville
Bronze- for the strength and endurance of the Community
Green- for the richness and resources within the community
White- for the peacefulness within Bronzeville
Red- for the heart and soul or Bronzeville
