I chosed Hiram Revels because he was a very intelligent person. He did a lot for everyone, everyone respected him. He never had anything against white people. He treated everyone equally and treated everyone with respect. Revels was the first senator for 1 year. He loved everyone. He eventually died in Janaury 16, 1901. I admire him because he respected everyone, loved everyone, had good opinions, and was very outspoken.
