Google reportedly came up with a peaceful rendition on Martin Luther King Jr. on its doodle section, to pay homage to the legend, who played a prominent role in America's Civil Rights Movement.
The peaceful rendition of Dr. King by the popular search engine on Martin Luther King Jr. day gave a serene depiction of a man, who stood up against racial segregation with peaceful protests.
The doodle featured flying doves and Martin Luther King Jr. himself, which on a single click, opened a page providing historical information on him, Cnet reported.
