That ain’t nothing but Black Girl Magic! Arantza Peña Popo, a teen from Lithonia, GA, won the 2019 Doodle For Google contest, beating out over 200,000 submissions. Her piece, titled: “Once You Get It, You Give It Back” debuted on the Google’s homepage on Aug 13, 2019 (EST). “In her words, the Doodle depicts “a framed picture of my mother carrying me as a baby (a real picture in my house) and below the picture is me, caring for her when she’s older in the future.”
