According to the CBC, the founder of one of Nova Scotia's first newspapers owned and operated by Black Canadians, Carrie Best, is honoured in today's Google Doodle.
Best was a Black publisher, broadcaster, journalist, author and activist who was born in New Glasgow, N.S., in 1903.
She founded The Clarion in 1946, publishing news about and by the Black community. She later started her own radio show called The Quiet Corner, which consisted of music and poetry related to human rights.
