The New Slave Masters

George Dallas McKinney

It's SLAVERY all over again! The New Slavemasters that are destroying hopes and dreams in families and relationships are even more threatening than their whip-wielding predecessors. These new Slavemasters’ evil-rooted forces – drugs, gangs, violence, racism, materialism, deception, teen pregnancy, and sexual promiscuity – still WALK AND LIVE AMONG US.
Nearly two centuries ago, Satan used mankind’s deeply rooted sin that resulted in humanity enslaving a race of God’s creation—African-Americans. In this new day when African-Americans enjoy complete freedom, there are new, insidious Slavemasters that work outside civilized law and labor to ensnare black families —and for that matter, families of all races.
This book provides a blueprint for restoration and strengthening of African American families. The term, The New Slavemasters, comes from my experiences of present-day enslavement of prevailing temptations and devastation of plagues that wrought the inner city suburbs in my community, resulting in self-imposed slavery and family destruction. When Christians [born-again] and non-Christians fail to recognize the bondage and break the chains that destroy our entire nation, they lose their freedom and volunteer to re-enter into forms of slavery.
This entire book helps give awareness of how to break free from and remain free of The New Slavemasters. Reader’s Study Guide, Chapter notes, questions and answers, true stories and illustrations are inserted to support and encourage Bible-study groups, scriptural understanding, and prayer devotions against the assault of the new Slavemasters.
The book begins with a mother trying desperately to save her son’s life that was impacted by drugs and “dirty” (drug) money. But, in the endless struggle to free her son from these new Slavemasters’ hold on him, tragedy occurs – he dies before her very eyes.

The Story of Rolf and the...

Allen French

An Iceland of the sagas: a boy is outlawed with his father over a disputed judgement, and must win the family land back by law and by the bow. Allen French wrote it in 1904 from the Icelandic sources and kept the saga temper — the feuds are settled at the Thing as often as by weapons. It is the best English retelling of saga law for young readers. Fifty-seven plates of northern light and Norse myth, from Caspar David Friedrich to Carl Bøgh, give the saga's storms, manors and quarrels their true weather.

A Word Is Not a Sparrow - A...

Various Authors, Barry Abrams,...

Artists in Ukraine have lost their livelihoods. The Ukraine Audiobook Relief Project was launched to support artists in Ukraine whose lives are threatened because of war. 
It is a fundamental aspect of war to suppress story, language, and culture. Moved by this crisis of culture, members of PANA (the Professional Audiobook Narrators Association) created this audiobook to raise money for Ukrainian relief. Joined by writers and musicians, we have volunteered our work to show our support for artists living through war. 
The profits from the sale of this audiobook will provide financial support to the Artists at Risk Connection in Ukraine through PEN America, a non-profit organization that endeavors to safeguard the right to artistic freedom of expression and ensure that artists and cultural professionals everywhere can live and work without fear. We urge you to support humanitarian efforts in Ukraine by supporting its artists. 
The folk wisdom of Ukraine includes this expression: “A word is not a sparrow … once it flies out, you won’t catch it." 
A Word Is Not A Sparrow is a diverse anthology of stories set amid Russian repression through the centuries; personal narrator testimony about the impact in America of immigrant grandparents from Ukraine and elsewhere; powerful fables and allegories that deliver universal messages about displacement, migration, and human connection; and classic Cossack folk tales that are a touchstone of Ukrainian culture. Listen as we let these words fly out around the world. 
Narrated by PANA member volunteers Barry Abrams, Jennifer Jill Araya, Dave Arlington, Rosemary Benson, Anna Crowe, Claudia Dunn, Andrea Emmes, Gary Furlong, Rebecca Gallagher, Caroline Hewitt, Susan Iannucci, Elizabeth Jasicki, Tom Jordan, Jennifer March, Janet Metzger, Rich Miller, Erin Moon, Sara Morsey, Traci Odom, Sheri Saginor, and Tiffany Williams.

Aspects Of The Novel

E. M. Forster

"I am annoyed when people laugh at me for loving The Swiss Family Robinson , and I hope that I have annoyed some of you over Scott !" Anyone attempting an analysis and evaluation of novels inevitably runs the risk of upsetting those with different literary tastes. E. M. Forster , in his 1927 Clark Lectures, embraced this challenge in this personal yet seminal account of the English novel. The previous decade had seen a number of significant contributions to literary criticism of the novel, and Forster engages with a number of them in his lectures. Yet most of these have been forgotten, while Forster's Aspects of the Novel remains in print, with a new edition introduced by Frank Kermode appearing as recently as 2005. The continuing appeal is not simply Forster's elegant prose, nor his engaging, conversational tone, nor yet the frisson of his many judgments on well-known books and contemporary authors. Rather, the work has proved seminal for Forster's selection of "aspects," and the clarity and cogency of his analysis. Contemporary reviews and reactions to his published lectures tended to decry his insights as limited to his own practice as a leading novelist. With the benefit of hindsight, more recent critics recognize the way in which Forster's account of the novel has shaped the development of its study in the 20th century and beyond. As Aspects of the Novel approaches its centenary, it enjoys an established place as a classic of literary criticism. E. M. Forster (died 1970) was a significant literary figure of the 20th century. Their work has endured across generations and continues to be read and studied worldwide. The nonfiction literature of previous centuries offers invaluable windows into the minds and preoccupations of earlier ages. Aspects Of The Novel combines the personal and the universal in ways that continue to resonate with contemporary readers seeking to understand both history and human nature.
