First I will state that, as with all inventions, the concepts I am speaking about are not necessarily the sole inventions of the creators listed. However, I am saying, as the video did, that contributions of these inventors were 100% essential to the production and evolution of goods we find common place in society today. I would also like to state that my claims were moreso off the hip and will be addressed and adjusted in this post.
Dr. Charles Drew - Blood Banks & Mass Transfusions: Dr. Charles Drew wrote a thesis at Columbia University on methods of storing plasma for later use. It was the key source for founding and developing blood banks, a form of storage for blood to used for infusions on small and relatively large scales. Of course this concept has gone on to save millions of lives worldwide and possibly within in the United States alone. Anyone who's been in the hospital for extensive surgeries, injuries, and other procedures would be a beneficiary of the real Dr. Drew's developments. Since we're here I might as well take the time to say Donate Blood Brehs.
Garret Morgan - Stop/Traffic light: Garret Morgan was a prolific inventor who held several patents for his creations including the gas mask. He designed the traffic light to make travel for drivers and pedestrians. He eventually sold the patent to General Electric, founded by Thomas Edison and other inventors and the country's biggest power provider.
Benjamin Banneker - Banneker is practically on mythical moorish level when it comes to enlightening the world with his inventions and scientific findings. He was a tinkerer that disassembled a watch he had come to possess and reassembled it to get an understanding of its design and functions. He then created his own clock made of would that was capable of continuous function for decades. He was also an astronomer, almanac writer, and created the original plan for the nations current capital, Washington D.C.
Dr. Mark Dean - The Personal Computer: As an employee of IBM in the 1980's Dean claimed 3 out of 9 patents for the original Personal Computer. I don't think we really need to delve into how important the personal computer is today or how much it has contributed to the world, but his contributions also include the world's first gigahertz processing chip that shot human development as a whole a few hundred years into the future. 20 patents in all.
I would like to adjust my claim of the invention of the lightswitch
Lewis Latimer - Improved Light Bulb Filament: Hired by a rival of light bulb inventor Thomas Edison, Latimer was tasked with assisting his employer Hiram Maxim with creating a better light bulb. Up until this point electricity was not a widely used resource for power and lighting, in fact, it was still very much so in its infancy/ experimental phase. Light bulbs were expensive, had short lifespans, could only be used within certain surroundings. Latimer developed a casing for the carbon fiber filaments that were in use that protected the filament thus vastly improving its lifespan. Because of this development light bulbs became more safe, cheaper, and more valuable. They were now able to be placed in homes and on streets. Latimer would then be hired by Thomas Edison himself to work as a patent officer for his electric company. His work with Edison and the patents accrued allowed Edison to launch a much bigger company, General Electric.
I would like to adjust my claim of the invention of the internet
Philip Emeagwali - Supercomputing: Emeagwali is Nigerian, as if that matters when we are talking about the internet, who developed a process by which extremely complex computation that would take computers of the late 1980's nearly 2 centuries to complete could be completed in a single day. A simple mathematics equation that took the approximate number of days it would take to complete complex computations was created. Over 65,000 days worth of work could be done in one day by 65,000 computer processors that were linked together capable of running over 3.1 billion calculations per second. I am looking further into the contributions and the findings of Emeagwali who is called the "Father of the Internet." some sources are claiming he might be a bit sketchy and the other sources are a bit odd as well, but ironically there was enough evidence by internet standards to substantiate his contributions to supercomputing.
This doesnt even begin to really get into it either

I didnt even mention what was already brought up in the vid and AA's very essential roll in agriculture or food preservation
Of course google is always your friend and you are more than welcome to build on what's been said in the thread or dispute these claims but one thing is for certain, we shook up the world brehs
