Building upon the work of Agnes Callard on the moral philosophy and psychology of anger, I attempt to critically reframe the ways in which the anger of internal critics and dissidents within psychoanalysis is understood. Through a consideration of the literature, and of my own intergenerational family history (with psychoanalysis and otherwise), I offer a challenge to a common (and, I argue, often bigoted) framing of such anger as wantonly rageful and indicative of a desire to destroy psychoanalysis. Rather, I propose we should understand and engage with this anger as provoked by a failure of white-, straight-, and male-dominated institutions and communities to join with and share psychoanalysis with people not from those groups. In this light, the anger of internal critics of psychoanalysis should properly be understood as both a protest and an invitation into a process of contrition and repair that can return all parties to a state of co-valuation of, and cohabitation in, the psychoanalytic community.
