Don is Madge's white supervisor and, while not entirely comfortable with Jones, is nonetheless sympathetic enough to him, or perhaps resentful enough of Madge, to give Jones information about where to find Madge. Don seems on some level to be aware of what Madge and her reactions to Jones are all about. He is one of the few if not the only white character who behaves in any way genuinely and supportive towards Jones.
