Enzo Silon Surin is a Haitian-born poet, educator, and advocate creating space for reflection, restoration, and belonging.

Poetry that resists silence. Stories that restore truth.

About

I write poems, essays, and reflections to hold space for what’s been silenced—and imagine what might still be made whole.

American Scapegoat

American Scapegoat is a book of painstakingly honest and chilling poems about America’s neglectful relationship with its own history.
