Broken Not Shattered

Based on a True Story

By: Kyna Bryn

This is a story of one woman's journey through horrendous obstacles and terrible injustices. Broken Not Shattered reflects the molding of a true warrior of God. From the day she was born, Zara Banks was in a struggle for survival. After being exposed to abuse, neglect, rejection, and being bullied most of her life, Zara struggled to understand if she even had a purpose in this world. Once becoming a mother herself, Zara questioned why God would allow so many horrific things happen to her. How could she be the mother she knew she wanted to be, when the torment of her past continued to haunt her? Zara continued to face trails in her life that seemed to rival that of Job, but through every trial, she continued to fight for what she felt was right. Facing a millionaire that tried to take her only child, suffering the abuse of her past, and fighting her addictions, by never giving up, Zara became a stronger woman who overcame adversity worse than most of us can even imagine. In the end, she emerged from the flaming depths of hell that continued to surround her in life. Broken Not Shattered proves that you can come out of the darkness in this world much stronger, confident, and victorious. This heart-wrenching, detailed real-life story is a must read for social workers, educators, and all human service professionals. Zara represents our mothers, daughters, aunts, sisters, and neighbors. The unconditional love she reflects for God and her daughter, with her humility and capacity for forgiveness, is an inspiration for all women. (Kim Wasik, retired and still currently a licensed social worker, LMSW) I cannot express how much this book changed my life and exposed faith I never knew I had. Broken Not Shattered opened my eyes to realize that I was worth the fight. This book truly saved me from giving up and gave me the confidence to make changes, not only for myself but also for my children. I realized that if this woman could go through hell and come back, then I could too! (Laci Hall)

Hollywood and the End of the Cold War

Signs of Cinematic Change

By: Bryn Upton

From the late 1940s until the early 1990s, the Cold War was perhaps the most critical and defining aspect of American culture, influencing television, music, and movies, among other forms of popular entertainment. Films in particular were at the center of the battle for the hearts and minds of the American public. Throughout this period, the Cold War influenced what movies got produced, how such movies were made, and how audiences understood the films they watched. In the post–Cold War era, some genres of film suffered from the shift in our national narratives, while others were quickly reimagined for an audience with different political and social fears. In Hollywood and the End of the Cold War: Signs of Cinematic Change, Bryn Upton compares films from the late Cold War era with movies of similar themes from the post–Cold War era. In this volume, Upton pays particular attention to shifts in narrative that reflect changes in American culture, attitudes, and ideas. In exploring how the absence of the Cold War has changed the way we understand and interpret film, this volume seeks to answer several key questions such as: Has the end of the Cold War altered how we tell our stories? Has it changed how we perceive ourselves? In what ways has our popular culture been affected by the absence of this once dominant presence? With its focus on themes that are central to the concerns of many historians—including civil religion, social fracture, and the culture wars—Hollywood and the End of the Cold War will serve as a useful tool for those seeking to integrate film into the classroom, as well as for film scholars exploring representations of sociopolitical change on screen.

Outbreak! Plagues That Changed History

By: Bryn Barnard

“An engrossing introduction for young adult readers to the chillingly topical subject of man vs. microbe.” —The Wall Street Journal Did the Black Death destroy medieval Europe? Did cholera pave the way for modern Manhattan? Did yellow fever help end the slave trade? Remarkably, the answer to all of these questions is yes. Time and again, diseases have impacted the course of human history in surprisingly powerful ways. From influenza to smallpox, from tuberculosis to yellow fever, Bryn Barnard describes the symptoms and paths of the world’s worst diseases—and how the epidemics they spawned have changed history forever. Filled with fascinating, often gory details about disease and history, Outbreak! is a wonderful combination of science and history.
