first ancestry is not based on how you look and your definition of "mixed" is not valid for me. if we go by only mixed as you call it then no black person is good enough for you. there are no pure black people in america that are descendants from slavery. if this is what you mean by contributions then this is a mute point. i find it funny how mixed is used when it is convenient, i never saw a posted sign in the south that said mixed bathroom, or mixed water fountain.

I was hoping for a site, but thanks for all the effort. Unfortunately, you listed: Otis Boykin - mixed Charles Drew - mixed Daniel Hale Williams - mixed Dr. Joycelyn Elders - Black, no contribution Phil Brooks - didn't invent disposable syringe, just patented it April 9, 1974. It was invented during the 40s by Whites. I accept these as Real African Blacks contributors: Dr. Ben Carson Dr. Vivien Thomas *Dewey Sanderson, can't confirm ancestry with photograph.

In 1893, Daniel became the first physician to perform open heart surgery by removing a knife from the heart of a patient that had been stabbed. i think that should start a list for you the rest you can research
