Today's Google Doodle honors the 60th anniversary of one of the most important moments in the civil rights movement.
is a diorama of the four men, later known as the A&T Four or Greensboro Four, sitting at a Woolworth lunch counter to order a cup of coffee.
"Creating art honoring the Greensboro sit-in is my way of giving back to today's generation, especially to those who are in desperate times and troubles—to lift them up and teach them about their history," Collins told Google. The Greensboro sit-in saw four young black students at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University—Joseph McNeil, Franklin McCain, Ezell Blair, Jr., and David Richmond—protesting segregation that ran rampant in Greensboro, North Carolina. The original four students' plan was that by repeating the process and drawing attention to the issue, Woolworth would be forced to desegregate.
