LGBTQ+ Representation in Google Doodle
Today's Google Doodle features the work of a young artist from a 10th-12th grade group in Connecticut. The theme was to doodle what they see for the future. It is cool to see kids understand the importance of representation and, perhaps, identity intersectionality. There is the first rainbow "G" that probably represents the Pride Flag and the second "G" that has the transgender symbol. It's encouraging to see that kids know these concepts, and hope to see their presence and increased recognition in our future.

I absolutely love this doodle! It is super creative and just radiates positive energy. It is also awesome to see Google support it on such a wide platform and prioritize this over all the other cool doodle submissions! This gives me a lot of hope for the future and is very telling of the fact that the coming generations are going to make greater changes.
