The daughter of a Wilson \u0026amp; Company millwright, Cheri Register recalls the 1959 meatpackers' strike that divided her hometown of Albert Lea, Minnesota. The violence that erupted when the company \"replaced\" its union workers with strikebreakers tested family loyalty and community stability.
