GOOGLE ASKED young artists to consider the concept, What I see for the future
And for Connecticut high schooler Sarah Harrison, that horizon line includes peace.
This afternoon, Harrisons A Peaceful Future is being named as the winning art in the national Doodle 4 Google student contest and appears on the Google home page. Harrison rendered eight young people as symbols of diverse experience six of whom spell out Google.
Reacting to her win, Harrison said in a statement: When I started, I was thinking of how theres a lot of animosity toward diverse communities of people in the world right now. So I wanted to draw something that I hoped would show that we can all get along well, and that its possible for us to be happy with each other.
The Bunnell High School student added: You dont know what theyve been through and they dont know what youve been through so we all deserve respect from each other.

Unfortunately, divide-and-conquer has worked all too well.
