Nappy Roots Books

Oklahoma City, OK

Nappy Roots Books is, first and foremost, a bookstore. We carry new & used books for adults and children. Our focus is on books by, for and about African people throughout the diaspora. We also carry political books, and books about other communities of color, art, jewelry, gifts, skin care products, and a variety of other items to serve our community. We're located smack-dab in the middle of Oklahoma City's northeast community near the corner of Northeast 36th & Kelley. Many of our books are priced under $5.

That's just part of our mission and our story. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. We serve as a meeting /gathering /synthesis site for people who want to gather, teach, learn, share in ways that advance the good of our community. Our walls display original works by local artists.
