Their Eyes Were Watching God

Mis’ Washburn and Janie and her grandmother’s relationship

Mis’ Washburn was a white woman who allowed Janie and her grandmother to live in her back yard. She also dressed Janie in nice clothes and really cared for her and let her play with the other children in the house. This really surprised me because I would never have thought that a white woman would be so kind to a couple of colored folks during the day and age that this novel was based.
