Why does Cassie think Mr. Jamison isn’t like other white men?
Cassie sees Mr. Jamison as a part of the family. He is supportive of black families, and he does his utmost to protect TJ from the lynch mob.
From the text:
"He was the only white man I had ever heard address Mama and Big Ma as 'Missus," and I liked him for it"
