Google keeps a scary amount of data on you. Here's how to find and delete it


Everything you do online when you're signed into Google, and even some stuff when you aren't, becomes a part of your Google profile, but you can wipe the slate clean with these steps.

For the 60th anniversary of the Greensboro Sit-In, Karen Collins' photographed diorama of the Greensboro Four at the Woolworth's lunch counter will serve as the Google Doodle. Collins is a Compton-based artist and founder of the African American Miniature Museum. Her museum is full of dioramas representing black history in the US. 

Collins began making miniatures and dioramas as an adult, a hobby her family couldn't afford in her childhood. Her craft took on the greater purpose of telling important stories through the dioramas. She found solace in miniatures after her son was incarcerated and she formed the museum.
"For me, the museum was a way to turn the negativity into something positive and share the stories of our ancestors' strength and perseverance through hardship," Collins said.
 "I want young people to learn about those that came before them who sacrificed to help make the lives they live today possible. Most importantly, I want them to see that we each have the power to make it through difficult times to thrive and hopefully make things better for those who come after us."
