Answer:
Hiram Rhodes Revels was the first African-American to serve in the United States Senate. He represented the state of the Mississippi from 1870 to 1871. So far, Revels has been one of the nine African Americans who have served in the Senate.
Revels, a moderate Republican, appeared as a vigorous advocate of racial equality.
He served on the Education and Labor Committee and the District of Columbia Committee. The attention of the Senate at the time was directed towards the reconstruction of the country. While radical Republicans advocated severe and continuing punishments for the former Confederates, Revels advocated full and unrestricted amnesty, giving them a vote of confidence.
Revels was praised by the press for his oratory skills. His conduct in the Senate, in addition to that of other African Americans elected to the House of Representatives, has led a white contemporary, James G. Blaine, to state, "The men of color who have taken office in both the Senate and the House of Representatives are scholars, ambitious, whose public conduct would honor any race. "
In Louisiana Jury decision need not be unanimous.
Explanation:
Each and every Juror need not be convinced for the defendant' guilt. If the judges claim to be of similar opinion then the guilt proves to be reasonable but its not the majority of the judges opinion. Judges love this process as it expedites the deliberations and most of the cases are solved faster.
Unanimity is required in all criminal cases which are of third degree severity. In a state where the racial disparity is to the maximum and unanimity of jury persists then, there are many chances for the defendant to be convicted and sentenced to life in prison without parole based upon a 10-2 vote of the jury decisions.

This was as a result of Europe building up to another war, which later turned to world war 2.
