BlackFacts.com presents the black fact of the day for June 3.

Physician Charles Drew was born.

He was an African American physician and surgeon who was an authority on the preservation of human blood for transfusion.

Drew was educated at Amherst College, McGill University, Montreal, and Columbia University.

While earning his doctorate at Columbia in the late 1930s, he researched the properties and preservation of blood plasma.

He soon developed efficient ways to process and store large quantities of blood plasma in “blood banks.”

As the leading authority in the field, he organized and directed the blood-plasma programs of the United States and Great Britain in the early years of World War II, while also agitating the authorities to stop excluding the blood of African Americans from plasma-supply networks.

He resigned his official posts in 1942 after the armed forces ruled that the blood of African Americans would be accepted but would have to be stored separately from that of whites.

He then became a surgeon and professor of medicine at Freedmen’s Hospital, Washington, D.C., and Howard University (1942–50).
