The Pullman neighborhood in Chicago got it's name from the Pullman train car manufacturing company, which was located in what is now known as Pullman. The company, founded by George Pullman, built an entire community for it's workers.
back then the workers' boss used to cut down the workers paychecks. so workers engaged in the pullman strike so they can get their money back. i hope this helps:)
