À propos de cet audio

In this episode of The History AI Podcast, Chuck and Marco dive into one of the most dramatic labor battles in American history—the 1894 Pullman Strike. What began as a wage dispute in a company town just outside Chicago spiraled into a nationwide showdown that halted rail traffic, brought in federal troops, and forever changed the relationship between workers, corporations, and the government.

Join us as we explore the world of George Pullman’s “model town,” the rise of Eugene V. Debs and the American Railway Union, and how the strike’s aftermath shaped U.S. labor law, inspired the creation of Labor Day, and fueled future movements for workers’ rights.

And stay tuned after the episode for an original song, “The Strike at Pullman Town,” written just for this story.
