Abstract

This article repositions Gayatri Spivak's question to call on the psychological clinic to question its listening to black fags, based on a critique of its tradition mostly anchored in cis-hetero-centric white colonial matrices. It is a cartographic experience built from clinical encounters with a black queer, whose data were analyzed using Encruzanalysis as a methodological cosmogram that allows the analysis of subjectivation processes in their micropolitical and macropolitical intersections. Clinical listening is thus expanded to capture transits and intersections between themes such as racism and homophobia, loneliness, objectification and sexualization, in addition to active resistance as an aesthetic-political dimension of confronting intersecting oppressions. The clinical experience goes beyond the merely individual dimension and opens up room for questions about the role of the psychological clinic with LGBTQIAP+ people.
