As you may know, today is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, and Google is celebrating with a doodle.

The doodle was created by artist Faith Ringgold. Here’s the bio she uses on her site:

She is in the permanent collection of many museums including the Studio Museum in Harlem, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, and The Museum of Modern Art.
