Through out the chapter George, Sam, and Rameck had role models in there lives. Miss Johnson was George's role model he says that " I loved school. My third-grade teacher, Viola Johnson, was largely responsible for that." George also says that he never felt deprived, and that Miss Johnson would say " Everybody has a chance to go to college," " Never say you can't go because of money. Get that degree. You must get that degree". She would take her classes to plays, and introduced them to algebra and Shakespeare. She always made him feel curious about the world I yet to see. Rameck's role model was his martial arts teacher Reggie. Rameck looked up to him and admired that he made a honest living, he didn't do drugs, and took care of himself. He was very cool and was respected by many people for doing good in the community. Rameck also admired that Reggie cause he provided a diversion to kids who could so easily drift into trouble .Sam also has a role model which was changed his life and encouraged which was Carla. I think people should be encouraged to take leadership in a trouble community, cause they have a better chance of helping younger children to change there lives or to make something out of themselves and that can make a difference. People would be amazed at how they can change a young persons life around being someone they can look up to.
