问题     Former slave Joseph Hayne Rainey entered the Capitol building as the first African American member of the U. S. House of Representatives in December 1870. His great-granddaughter can only wonder what that was like for him. " He was the only one, the only Black man," Lorna Rainey said. She was just three years old when family members began sharing stories about Joseph Rainey’s place in history. " You know, there was something inside of him that said, ’ I’m not going to quit, and once I get to Washington, just watch what I’m going to do,’ "she said. In February, America celebrates Black History Month. It is a time to examine the lives of African Americans like Joseph Rainey. His service to his country is now receiving more attention. Bobby Donaldson said; "Joseph Rainey is someone who can be described as the founding father of our nation. " Donaldson is a history professor at the University of South Carolina. " He helped to envision a nation following liberation during this era called Reconstruction," Donaldson said.
