I heard that a black man was instrumental in developing the blood transfusion system and was the first to start the bloodmobile trend! He also helped determine better blood storage and use of plasma instead of whole blood, which is one of the most important medical steps that is taken in saving millions of lives!

Unfortunately, he died in a car wreck and I heard that he would have survived had the doctors been willing to give him a transfusion but they wouldn't because he was black. If that is true, it makes me sick!
Did you see that episode of M*A*S*H?
