Forrest Hammer’s poem, which talks about my lists of interest, indicates we have similar mindsets on life.

Forrest Hammer is a poet that knows how to keep his idea of teaching lessons about society in a way that the young people can relate to. Keeping young, telling the story, teaching lessons, Hammer knows how to get his message across. Poet, teacher, and preacher at times, he helped people realize that life is not about busting them rhymes. Hammer and I relate to the message, the message about life; how society may not change, but it is up to you to change it. People of color, don’t have to be what people expect them to be because of different race or different cultural background.
I can certainly relate to Forrest Hammer defiantly, because of me being an African Native American. I have seen how society expects how young blacks, Indian, Hispanics are looked at. I remember, interviewing a primary source for National History Day, and she said that she and others did not fight for education, for young people to throw it away now that it is there. We are becoming what society wants us to come. Yet do we know that through Christ we can do all things? Even though we are equal, we still find a divide ourselves. Brown sugar and flour, mix together like a cake, we still have to bake.
