Abstract
This article aims to explore racism and whiteness using theoretical foundations from Psychoanalysis, particularly the psychoanalysis of group subjects, with a specific emphasis on the concepts of ideology and (un)conscious alliances, as developed by René Kaës. Additionally, the text brings forth vignettes from individual and group clinical sessions where those forms of domination were identified and interpreted. In this context, the present writing seeks to provide theoretical and technical contributions to the framework of an anti-racist psychological clinic.
Keywords: Whiteness, (anti)racism, racialized clinic, ideology, Kaesian psychoanalysis.
