top layer behind a different layer

Hello! I cannot figure out how to get the object (selected red) above the black rectangle in this image. I have created different layers, and the red one is my top (fourth) layer but it still pulls in, seemingly, behind my black rectangle (second) layer. I drew it with the pen tool and have tried drawing a new object but it still drops in behind the black rectangle when I place it in there. 

I am new to InDesign and don't know what else to do to get this layer above the other one. Thanks in advance for any assistance!
