Words. Stage. Politics. Truth.

Poetry that refuses to whisper.

About

Staceyann Chin is a Jamaican-born, New York–based writer and performing artist whose work blends lyric urgency with political clarity. On the page and on stage, the mission is consistent: tell the truth in a way that lands—beautifully, sharply, and without apology.

“The point isn’t to be comfortable. The point is to be awake.” — unofficial site copy (mockup)

Work

The work lives across poems, essays, performance pieces, and long-form storytelling. Themes frequently orbit identity, power, migration, love, and the everyday mechanics of survival.

Poetry Spoken-word energy with literary craft—built to hold a room, not just a page.
Performance Stage pieces that move between humor and fury, intimacy and indictment.
Advocacy Art as civic pressure: language used to illuminate, confront, and organize.
