Zacahri Mascary

Zacahri Mascary is a first generation Haitian-American spoken word performer, published author, stand-up comedian, actor, and future polyglot linguist with roots throughout Massachusetts. Zacahri uses his words to inspire free thought, challenge conditioned ways of thinking, and center community-based healing. As a teaching artist, Zacahri Mascary facilitates workshops which empower the voice of participants and encourages them to reflect upon, honor, and reclaim their power by telling their stories. He is expressly passionate about helping people tune into their inner voice. He does so by sharing practices and frameworks that assisted him through his own experiences growing up in a multilingual home. Zachari has spent the past five years refining his skills as a spoken word performer, author, teaching artist, and advocate of young people at The Burke High School, 826 Boston, Northeastern University, Community Services of Roxbury, Boston Housing Authority, and most recently ZUMIX.
