(CNN) Sixty years ago, four African American college students quietly sat down at a whites-only Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina, and waited. Within three days of their protest beginning, more than 300 students joined the "Greensboro Four" in their sit-in. Google is kicking off Black History Month with a doodle that commemorates the 60th anniversary of the Greensboro sit-ins. Saturday's doodle comes from the Compton-based artist Karen Collins, who is also the founder of the African American Miniature Museum . This doodle is actually a photo of a diorama that depicts the "Greensboro Four" protesting racial segregation at the Woolworth's lunch counter on February 1, 1960.
