In "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry," the chain gang is a group of African American prisoners who are forced to work on a chain gang as punishment for their crimes. They are treated inhumanely, subjected to harsh conditions and violence by the white prison guards. Their presence serves as a harsh reminder of the systemic racism and injustice prevalent in the society depicted in the book.
