NEW RELEASE

ROSA PARKS BEYOND THE BUS: Life, Lessons, and Leadership H. H. LEONARDS Rosa Parks Beyond the Bus: Life, Lessons, and Leadership is a collection of inspiring and instructive memories compiled from the decade that author H. H. Leonards opened her Washington, DC residence to Mrs. Parks as her home away from home. During those years, H. H. Leonards was able to know the heart, mind, and spirit of the woman who refused to give up her seat on a Montgomery, Alabama city bus on December 1, 1955. The author uses the book as a forum to share her remembrances, both delightful and somber, in a way that offers readers an intimate and personal glimpse into the personhood of Mrs. Parks. Rosa Parks Beyond the Bus is a personal look into Mrs. Parks’ life, her thoughts, her beliefs, and her immense wisdom that moved people—from world leaders Nelson Mandela, Deepak Chopra, and Pope John Paul II, to the smallest of children—to seek and revere her presence.

NEW RELEASE IN 2022! Visit www.rhboyd.com for more information When people learn the phenomenal story of The Cupcake Collection owner Mignon Francois’ success, they often ask her, “How did you do it?” The driving force behind the woman who turned a $5 cupcake order into a $10 million business has less to do with innovative marketing or business practices and more to do with the heart, mind, and spirit of the company’s founder/CEO. In her new book, Mignon shares heartfelt stories about the roots of her successes—from her upbringing to the serendipitous connections she has made along the way. She provides forthright reflections on her life challenges, as well as her tools for staying grounded in her faith while running a multi-million-dollar corporation. Her inspirational story is certain to captivate readers. Additional details will be forthcoming, so stay tuned to our website, social media, and upcoming eblasts.

COMING SOON! COACHING FROM THE SOUL “I believe we all have a special voice, vision, hopes, and dreams. The key to unleashing what’s inside of us is to stop looking on the outside for answers that can only be discovered deep within us.” –Dr. Cory M. Buckner Through Coaching from the Soul, Dr. Cory Buckner takes the reader on a journey through various stages of development that have been broken down into four quarters like a sporting event to help one remember who they were created to be. The author reminds readers that they were born with a purpose and encourages them to reach the greatest version of themselves. Readers are cheered on to step into life with great intentions, great clarity, great habits, and great awareness.

Dr. Buckner has worked with student-athletes throughout his career at top universities where his research and expertise is centered on supporting their academic and athletic dreams. Whether a student-athlete or a student of life, his book on life lessons is rooted in proven strategies for success.

FIVE GENERATIONS OF LEADERSHIP The Vision of Dr. Richard Henry Boyd: 1896–1922 “The Negro must furnish his Sunday school with religious knowledge, his choirs with music, and his firesides and parlors with wholesome literature, written and manufactured by his own energy… Whatever is taught in the Sunday schools of this generation will be the doctrine of the church in the next generation.” — Dr. Richard Henry Boyd Dr. Richard Henry Boyd was a pioneering clergyman, religious organizer, educator, banker, and inspiring leader. He was a strategic problem solver and sought to provide resources and business solutions to freedmen and freedwomen during the late 1800s and early 1900s. In 1896 he founded the National Baptist Publishing Board (NBPB), now known as the R.H. Boyd Publishing Corporation, in order to provide Christian education and supplies to churches across the country. He did so to give a platform to the Black voice in the religious experience, independent of the confines of the oppressor. His work was focused on training Black Baptist missionaries, teachers, and leaders using Christian education materials written by qualified Black scholars. Dr. Boyd believed that business enterprise and economic freedom were essential for Black families to truly gain

independence. In 1902, Dr. Boyd and colleagues formed the National Baptist Church Supply Company. In 1904, he was one of the founders of the One Cent Savings and Trust Company, now known as Citizens Saving and Trust Bank in Nashville, TN. He also founded the Negro Doll Company (1905), the National Baptist Congress (1906), Union Transportation Streetcar Company (1906), the Nashville Globe (1906), Nashville Colored Young Men’s Christian Association (1917), and many other entities. The core of each business reflected needs of the time—innovation and entrepreneurship intersected to create opportunities and advancement for the community at large. Within ten years of founding the National Baptist Publishing Board, the company became the largest and most notable Black publishing enterprise with an impressive list of publications. Dr. Boyd was a leader in the fight for civil rights, and he also promoted home ownership, missionary work, and travel among Black people. His dedication to elevating the position of Black people in multiple areas of life, in addition to religious studies, solidifies his place in history as one of the pioneering leaders of the time. His lasting legacy, entrepreneurial spirit, and mission have been the backbone of the work that R.H. Boyd continues to this day.

The Legacy of Dr. Henry Allen Boyd: 1922–1959 “Because the National Baptist Publishing Board is in operation for the sole purpose of giving service to the race and denomination, every phase of religious life has been considered. The interest of the institution is naturally centered on the things pertaining to religion and spirituality, and that interest is deep and abiding. Service is the keynote of the institution.” — Dr. Henry Allen Boyd Dr. Henry Allen Boyd served alongside Dr. Richard Henry Boyd as assistant secretary of NBPB and the National Baptist Congress, as well as editor of the Union Review and the Nashville Globe newspapers, among many other ventures. Upon Dr. R. H. Boyd’s death in 1922, Henry Allen Boyd became the leader of NBPB, National Baptist Congress, and Citizens Bank. He served on many boards, including Meharry Medical College and Fisk University, and he played a crucial role in the founding of Tennessee A & I State College, now known as Tennessee State University. Dr. Henry Allen Boyd restructured the National Baptist Congress format, and a curriculum was developed to meet the critical social and religious needs of the period. The Congress advanced profoundly under his leadership and attained new

6 8

growth during each year of the Great Depression. Dr. H. A. Boyd also expanded the product offerings of the NBPB to include an extensive array of products, such as certificates, songbooks, record books, and educational courses. By 1934, NBPB served over 20,000 churches and Sunday schools across the country and the world. Citizens Bank continued to grow as well, reaching $1 million in capital assets by 1944. Boyd continued to serve as a denominational leader, speaker, and advocate for entrepreneurial advances. His charisma and hospitality were the key to his success and left a lasting impact for all to witness. Under his leadership, the institutions survived the depression, world wars, conflict, opposition, growth, and competition.

The Endurance of Dr. T. B. Boyd, Jr.: 1959–1979 “Such meetings will result in clarifying the purpose and program of the Congress, and will enable us to launch a greater unified effort through our newly adopted program of Christian education in the Sunday School and Baptist Training Union Congress, as we seek to reach and supply the needs of many unreached and unenlisted men, women, and children throughout our nation.” — Dr. T. B. Boyd, Jr.

Rights Movement, and he hosted Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., who served as a speaker at the 1960 session of the National Baptist Congress in Chicago, Illinois. Dr. Boyd called for unity and the uplift of Black people in the Baptist denomination, which was deeply divided at the time because of theological disputes and cultural upheaval. Dr. Boyd’s focus on product development, acquisition of new equipment, and the planning of a new headquarters were pivotal in the success of the companies.

In May of 1959, after the passing of Dr. Henry Allen Boyd, Dr. T. B. Boyd, Jr. assumed leadership of the NBPB, the National Baptist Congress, Citizens Banks, and other entities. Dr. Boyd was a graduate of Tennessee A & I State College, member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., and served on various boards and commissions throughout the city. Upon graduating from college in 1940, Dr. Boyd served in the Army during WWII. He also served as pastor of Greater Salem Baptist Church in Louisville, Kentucky. During the turbulent decade of the 1960s, Dr. Boyd’s vision was to provide church leaders who were often bypassed by standard curricula with new Christian ideas and techniques. Dr. Boyd also sought to facilitate even greater spiritual growth of Congress participants. Dr. Boyd was a supporter of the Civil

The National Baptist Publishing Board was built in 1976 and renamed the R.H. Boyd Publishing Corporation in 2000 in honor of Dr. R. H. Boyd.

The Guidance of Dr. T. B. Boyd III: 1979–2017 “It is a day of peace, a day of tranquility, a day of progress, and a day of recommitment to the very principles our forefathers laid down before us. Although the mantel has fallen on my shoulders, I will not let it hit the ground.” — Dr. T. B. Boyd III In April 1979, Dr. T. B. Boyd, Jr. passed away, and his eldest son, Dr. T. B. Boyd III, was appointed by the Board to assume command of the institution. Dr. Boyd III began to lead with unsurpassed vigor and devotion, and the NBPB and the Congress began to grow at a phenomenal rate. Dr. Boyd grew up in the company, working throughout high school and college. Upon graduating from Tennessee State University, Dr. Boyd began working full time as the personnel director, working his way up through the company to gain a full understanding of all processes. Dr. Boyd focused on growth and innovation. One of his first major tasks included designing and building the new corporate headquarters, completed in 1974, fully equipped with the latest technology, production mechanisms, and safety measures. One of his most notable successes was the launch of The New National Baptist Hymnal, 21st Century Edition. This hymnal is still one of the most iconic product offerings at the company. With more than 20,000 people attending the annual Congresses in the 1980s, Dr. T. B. Boyd III inspired an innovative dimension

of the Congress structure—the Youth Congress Division— designed for children, youth, and young adults, ages 4 through 24. The Youth Congress includes two dynamic ministries: youth drill teams and dance ministry. Both of these ministries are designed to enhance the Church’s spiritual growth and development of its younger generation. “Children are our greatest asset and our most important investment. We must prioritize and make sure that our children are our number one priority. We have no greater resource than our youth, no greater task than the orientation of molding of the young people.” —Dr. T. B. Boyd III His commitment to youth and education was continued with the founding of the Boyd Family Endowment Fund, which provides scholarships and grants to students and community organizations. Dr. Boyd is also one of the founding visionaries and board members of the new National Museum of African American Music (NMAAM) in Nashville, Tennessee, as well as a founding major donor for the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC) in Washington, D.C.’s Smithsonian Institute. The Boyd Family, R.H. Boyd Publishing Corporation, and Citizens Bank have exhibits in both NMAAM and NMAAHC. Dr. Boyd is civically engaged, and his affiliations include Kappa Alpha Psi, Fraternity, Inc., Sigma Pi Phi Fraternity, Chairman Emeritus of Citizens Bank, and the former vice-chairman of the Board of Trustees at Meharry Medical College. He is a locally and nationally recognized leader and speaker.

The Innovation of Dr. LaDonna Boyd: 2017–Present

“I stand as the proud leader of an organization that has lent its voice to positively uplifting the narrative of Black people. There is no greater time than the present to be a storyteller and shape the trajectory of this experience. Through R.H. Boyd, we have a multitude of resources that showcase the beauty and diversity of the Black voice. Since its founding by my great-great-grandfather in 1896, we have been an active supporter of and participant in the liberation of our people's voice for five generations, and now is not the time to rest on our laurels.” — Dr. LaDonna Boyd

After guiding the trajectory of R.H. Boyd Publishing for four decades, Dr. T. .B. Boyd III retired on October 27, 2017 and passed the mantle of leadership to his eldest daughter LaDonna, who had been serving the company as chief operating officer. As president/CEO, Dr. Boyd is shaping and leading the company’s efforts to broaden its scope and offerings for 21st century needs. With a targeted focus on product development, technology, commercial printing opportunities, and author resources, Dr. Boyd prepared for a number of years to take the reins as a CEO— cultivating a wide range of skills necessary to lead R.H. Boyd through a new generation. She is a graduate of Spelman College, earning a bachelor’s degree in economics, and Tennessee State University, where she completed a Master of Business Administration degree with a concentration in finance. She completed her Doctor of Education degree in Organizational Leadership at Pepperdine University. She is committed to continued professional development, including

earning a certificate in Digital Marketing Strategy from Harvard University’s Extension School. She has traveled extensively around the globe and earned recognition for community engagement and service, and she is a proud, active member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. She also serves on various boards, including Citizens Bank, the National Museum of African American Music, Evangelical Christian Publishers Association, Inc., and the Nashville Ballet. “It is an honor to carry on the legacy of my ancestors, spreading the message of Jesus Christ through the written word. We are committed to being a leader in providing Christian and inspirational resources for churches and communities across the world.” — Dr. LaDonna Boyd The vision for R.H. Boyd is to be the leading resource for storytelling through print, multimedia channels, data collection, events, and serving as industry experts. R.H. Boyd is also positioned to assist in the alleviation of social concerns and social injustices, in addition to fulfilling the need for Christian education, commercial printing, and educational resources. “As a publishing company, we are storytellers. We have the ability to shape the minds and experiences of the masses. As a Christian company, we have the significant responsibility and opportunity to draw people into the Kingdom through the written word.” — Dr. LaDonna Boyd Excerpts and abbreviated history from How it Came to Be by Dr. Bobby.

OUR MISSION

R.H. BOYD family endowment fund

MAKE A DIFFERENCE, DONATE TODAY! The R.H. Boyd Family Endowment Fund serves as a living memorial to Dr. R. H. Boyd, founder of the National Baptist Publishing Board, now R.H. Boyd Publishing Corporation. The Fund supports nonprofit organizations, churches, and empowers eligible students to attain their goals for programming, higher education, and better communities. Our scholarships aim to increase the number of minority undergraduate and graduate degree holders in certain fields of study, including business, theology, and English literature. R.H. Boyd Family Endowment Fund was the recipient of a Gospel Music Association (GMA) honors in 2019, and it is part of the The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee.

The purpose of our scholarships and grants is: • To PROMOTE participation and increase the knowledge of the cultural heritage of African Americans. • To ENCOURAGE innovation in advanced learning and professional development. • To INCREASE the number of minority graduate degree holders in select ﬁelds of study.

Our goals are: • To PREPARE individuals to strive toward their professional goals and aspirations. • To EMPOWER individuals to go forth and serve. • To IMPROVE communities by providing ﬁnancial resources to fund projects and programs.

Oversee special projects, such as the renovation of the Boyd House at Fisk University We invite you to join in a historic opportunity to partner with us in the renovation of the Boyd House on the campus of Fisk University. The home was originally owned by Dr. Henry Allen Boyd, second-generation leader of the National Baptist Publishing Board (NBPB), and his wife Georgia Bradford Boyd, a suffragist and a prominent community voice for the advancement of women’s and children’s issues. The home is now owned by Fisk University. We recently launched a $1.4 million nationwide campaign to restore this early-twentieth-century Edwardian-style home, which is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. The home is being renovated to create academic spaces, such as classrooms and a lecture hall, and to build opportunities to further the educational pursuits of students in business and entrepreneurship.

With your generous financial gift, we can restore the Historic Boyd House. Visit theboydhouse.org to make tax-deductible gifts and pledges toward this effort and to stay up to date on specific details about the restoration and preservation process.

This is an older image of the Boyd House. It is in current need of major repair and has sustained significant damage to the exterior. Dr. Henry Allen Boyd and his wife Mrs. Georgia Bradford Boyd.

The following are a few letters of appreciation sent to us in gratitude for our support.

Briana N. Bloodworth

Devyn S. Harrod

Jelani Patterson

Because of this scholarship, I am able to focus on my studies without the stress of loans. Thanks for your investment in students like myself. I plan to pay it forward by helping another student achieve their goals as you’ve helped me. Continuing my studies wouldn’t be possible without the generous support from scholarship sponsors like yours.

I wish to thank you for awarding a scholarship to assist me in obtaining my educational goals. Through this ﬁnancial support, I have achieved much academic success while matriculating at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University.

The grant received front Boyd Endowment Fund helped tremendously in producing one of our ballets. It has been a life changing ballet for many and we thought the recent events in our country around racism deemed it essential in which the Boyd Grant has made this possible.

Without the help of the R. H. Family Endowment Fund, Salama Urban Ministries wouldn’t have been able to provide quality programming to approximately 100 kids each year. Your ﬁnancial support has allowed us to provide materials, instruments, and supplies needed to help our students at the most vulnerable times in their academic lives.

The HELP Center thanks you for your contribution to our center. With the funds received from the R.H. Boyd Family Endowment Fund it allowed the center to serve over 100 female and male individuals 18 years and older with complicated backgrounds and serve monthly food boxes to seniors with limited income.

The R.H. Boyd Family Endowment Fund has blessed me with that perfect gift from God. They have been unwavering in their support of my academic career. None of my accomplishments would have been possible without their help. I thank God everyday for their support and steadfast faith in me.

OUR IMPACT AND STAYING CONNECTED

The R.H. Boyd Family Endowment Fund is proud to support the educational pursuits of young adults and to aid churches and organizations in communities throughout the United States.

BOOKS BOOKS

THE BLACK CHURCH

This Is Our Story, This Is Our Song Henry Louis Gates, Jr. From the New York Times best-selling author of Stony the Road and one of our most important voices on the African-American experience comes a powerful new history of the Black Church as a foundation of Black life and a driving force in the larger freedom struggle in America. The Black church has never been only one thing. Its story lies at the vital center of the Civil Rights movement, and produced many of its leaders, from the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on, but at the same time there have always been churches and sects that eschewed a more activist stance, even eschewed worldly political engagement altogether. That tension can be felt all the way to the Black Lives Matter movement and the work of today. Still and all, as a source of strength and a force for change, the Black Church is at the center of the action at every stage of the American story, as this enthralling history makes vividly clear. 2475 | $30.00

SACRED PRIVILEGE Your Life and Ministry as a Pastor’s Wife

Kay Warren

Life as a pastor’s wife offers meaningful opportunities to play a significant part in God’s work, to witness and participate in the beauty of changed lives. Yet it also carries the potential for deep wounds and great conflict that can drain the joy out of service. Is it worth it? Oh yes, says Kay Warren, wife of Pastor Rick Warren and cofounder of Saddleback Church. It is more than worth the risk—it’s a sacred privilege. 2094 |

THE PRAYER COIN Daring to Pray with Honest Abandon

Elisa Morgan

In the same sentence, Jesus both requested, “Take this cup,” and relinquished, “Not my will.” He prayed two sides of the “prayer coin,” honesty and abandon. Elisa Morgan’s Prayer Coin explores this two-sided masterpiece of prayer, inviting readers to the intimacy Jesus died to provide. 2295 |

UNITED AGAINST RACISM

Churches for Change – Facilitator’s Guide

The time is NOW, as signaled by the United Nations’ decade-long commitment to people of African descent. In proclaiming this decade, the international community is recognizing that people of African descent represent a distinct group whose human rights must be promoted and protected. Authentic Christianity requires the loving inclusion of all God’s creation. An inclusive, beloved community is a community free from racism. United Against Racism is a call to an authentic Christianity, a religion that strives to become God’s inclusive, beloved community. It summons Christians to pray, think, and act to end racism. This resource aims to support churches, communions, and those who endeavor to share the journey of the Christian faith in the pursuit of an unfinished agenda to embody a more excellent way of racial equity. 2083 | $14.95

The facilitator’s guide to United Against Racism grows out of a profound awareness that embedded deep within the Christian faith tradition is a call to justice as a precursor to unity. Where there is no justice, there can be no authentic unity. It may seem to be trite, but it is a fact, if you take away “unity” from “community” we are left “with” nothing.

THE BEAUTIFUL STRUGGLE A Father, Two Sons, and an Unlikely Road to Manhood

An exceptional father-son story from the National Book Award–winning author of Between the World and Me about the reality that tests us, the myths that sustain us, and the love that saves us.

THE WATER DANCER (OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB)

A Novel

Ta-Nehisi Coates From the National Book Award-winning author of Between the World and Me, a boldly conjured debut novel about a magical gift, a devastating loss, and an underground war for freedom. This is the dramatic story of an atrocity inflicted on generations of women, men, and children—the violent and capricious separation of families—and the war they waged to simply make lives with the people they loved. Written by one of today’s most exciting thinkers and writers, The Water Dancer is a propulsive, transcendent work that restores the humanity of those from whom everything was stolen. 2265 |

BETWEEN THE WORLD AND ME Ta-Nehisi Coates

In a profound work that pivots from the biggest questions about American history and ideals to the most intimate concerns of a father for his son, Ta-Nehisi Coates offers a powerful new framework for understanding our nation’s history and current crisis. Americans have built an empire on the idea of “race,” a falsehood that damages us all but falls most heavily on the bodies of Black women and men. Coates shares with his son—and readers—the story of his awakening to the truth about his place in the world through a series of revelatory experiences. 2264 |

This book serves as a continuation of the story of how the Boyd family contributed to the development of religious publishing in the African-American context. It is a sequel to A Black Man’s Dream and covers essential details from R. H. Boyd’s seminal dream up to the early 21st century generation of Boyd leadership in the industry of religious publishing. In his keynote address to the 2004 National Baptist Sunday School and Baptist Training Union Congress, Dr. Gardner Taylor once described the Boyd family as “four generations of prominence.” How It Came to Be is the intriguing story of that development. This book is useful as a textbook for seminaries and Bible colleges, as well as for all who are interested in the development of religious publishing and Christian education. 0801 (mg) H | $8.99

5-DAY VBS LESSON SERIES Day 1: A Model for Leadership (2 Timothy 2:5–9) • Message: Some adults may think a person can be too young to make a difference. However, there are examples throughout our history that show otherwise. Day 2: Leadership in Crisis (Esther 4–6) • Message: Standing up to bullies can be scary and hard. Also, standing up for both yourself and others takes practice! However, having courage is when you’re afraid but still do the right thing anyway.

Day 3: Do the Right Thing (2 Kings 22–23) • Message: Resisting temptation to do wrong, such as judging others, giving in to greed, or “following the crowd” down a bad path, can sometimes be hard, especially when surrounded by peer pressure. Having determination and conviction to lead others to the right path takes courage and you will be rewarded. Day 4: Leadership Through Praise (Exodus 15:20–21) • Message: Sometimes, it can be scary when all eyes are on you. Self-doubt, worries about what your peers might think, and other such thoughts can keep some from expressing their praise for God. Have courage and never let judgment from other people keep you silent or prevent you from praising God out loud! Day 5: From Bearing a Cross to Wearing a Crown (Philippians 2:5–11) • Message: He was the best leader who ever lived. Humility, compassion, and truth were a few traits Jesus showed throughout His life.
