Today I spotlight Dr. Charles Drew. He was a world renowned scientist who was best known for his work with blood transfusions!
You can read more about him here!
Here is great story I read from another blog which has not once been mentioned in mainstream media. Tony Hansberry II is a 14 year old ninth-grader who has discovered a new technique for applying stitches to patients.
With the media usually portrays most black/latino youth as criminals, athletes, etc., its good to see a story of a young man of color who values education and at the same time trying to improve life for others. Tony says “I just want to help people and be respected, knowing that I can save lives.”
Hey…he is definitely someone I would like to have as my doctor!
