Remember that Hiram Revel was the first African American U.S. Senator.

Answer 3

I'm thinking A or D. (closer to D) but im not sure

Answer 4

Honestly, I can't really narrow this down.
I don't know much about this man.
I would this it to be D too, because before he took office the African Americans had a major lack of commitment for the political system. After he became a senator, people became more committed to be involved.
