"I am Black. I'm what's happening."

In Bearded Thoughts, Hip Hop artist and master educator Jamaal "Black Root" Collier transforms beard grooming into sacred ritual. This is not a self-help book - it's a toolkit for radical insight. 


Through over 50 affirmations, mantras, and "stray hairs" of hard-won wisdom, you'll: reclaim sensitivity as strength; build wealth beyond money, and refuse burdens that aren't yours to carry.

Jamaal "Black Root" Collier isn't just an author. For 20+ years, this Washington D.C.-born Hip Hop polymath (emcee/beatboxer/teaching artist/host) has turned classrooms and communities into sanctuaries of art and critical thought. Bearded Thoughts distills his life's work:


"My beard witnessed fatherhood, vulnerability, love, grief, and joy. These words are how I shape purpose - and how you can shape yours." 

"Bearded Thoughts is a nexus of observation and solitude. It is a gentle reminder of the goodness we are all capable of and the love we undoubtedly deserve. Among these affirmations are deep breaths and familiar hugs, a kindling and a craving for love. These words are simultaneously tough and tender things for us to have, hold, and use as we grow on our individual and collective journeys on this plane."  


~ B. Sharise Moore from the foreword of Bearded Thoughts
