Hammer lives in Chicago in "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry" because he left Mississippi to seek better job opportunities and living conditions due to the racial discrimination and violence faced by African Americans in the South during that time. Chicago was known to have a larger African American community and more job opportunities compared to rural Mississippi.
