Mr. Congressman

He served more than 10 terms in Congress and was set apart buy his leadership of  the Select Committee on Assassinations and Chairmanship of the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct.

Haven't guessed, yet?

Louis Stokes was sworn in as the first Black congressman from the state of Ohio on January 3, 1969.
A native of Cleveland, he served in he Army during World War II.  Following his discharge in 1946, he attended Cleveland College of Western Reserve University and Cleveland-Marshall College of Law, where he was graduated in June of 1953 and practiced law until his election to Congress from the 21st Congressional District on Nov. 6, 1968. He retired from the post of congressman in 1998.

This was a big step in the right direction. His election opened doors for Black Americans today. 
Thanks, Man!
