Although psychoanalytic theory is often mobilized to pathologize and discipline those who reject colonial and racialized projections, it can also be a tool for liberation. Using an indigenous epistemology of storytelling, I explore the colonial dynamics of power and oppression I experience as a queer, professional woman of color. I utilize contemporary Kleinian theory to frame my experiences, and I question the limits of what is knowable from this use of psychoanalytic theory. I then explore Sarah Ahmed’s work on Queer Use and David Eng’s frame of Colonial Object Relations as a means to understand the liberatory possibilities of psychoanalytic inquiry.
