Hiram Rhodes Revels made history as the first Black US Senator in 1870, followed by Joseph Hayne Rainey, the first Black Congressman in the US House of Representatives, with support from his wife, Susan. The Raineys overcome challenges during the Civil War, including oppressive laws in South Carolina, and found success in Bermuda. Susan became an entrepreneur, while Joseph navigated reconstruction, leaving a legacy of empowerment for future generations.
