With growing awareness of the impact of race and racism within psychoanalysis, we are in a phase of reflection and discussion. What are the opportunities for and challenges to addressing these issues within our institutes and in our clinical practice? How do we extend or develop our psychoanalytic oriented understanding of the dynamics that underscore racial enactments into concrete action and pragmatic improvement? With the urgent need for redress and reform in mind, participants at the Changing the Conversation Conference (March 2019) were invited to join each other in small group discussions about what we can actually do with the resources we already have to integrate anti-racism as part of the culture, values, organizational structures, and practices of psychoanalytic institutes. Results of the interactive exercise with facilitators were collated and sent to all the attendees. The qualitative data is presented here for us to think about our next steps in realizing a psychoanalytic community that is committed to addressing and—ideally—eliminating racism in both its institutes and the consulting room.
