in Say Yes, i know that in the end the husband ends up saying “yes” but i think that he only says it because he doesnt want his wife to be mad at him.

I wrote on say yes for my real essay.
I thought that he had learned his lesson about race but didn’t understand what his wife was trying to tell him, dont judge.
He does change in the sense that he realizes these arguments will not matter in the end. I hope that helps!
