Describe Mr. Jamison in comparison to other white people of the community: how was he different? Give examples.

Cassie likes Mr. Jamison for always calling her mother "ma'am." Mr. Jamison is not racist like most white people. He offers to back the credit of those who boycott the Wallace store and shop in Vicksburg, and he stands opposed to those who want to hang TJ, arguing with them and even blocking them from driving away by putting his car in the middle of the road.
