Abstract This study aimed to understand the experiences of racism and homophobia narrated by a young black gay man and son of an interracial family, and the repercussions on his psychic constitution. This is a qualitative, cross-sectional, exploratory study, with the case study as a methodological design. An in-depth interview was used, whose contents were subjected to inductive thematic analysis and interpreted in the light of the theoretical framework of race and subjectivity studies, under an intersectional perspective. The results obtained allowed to identify emotional effects of crossings between structural racism and homophobia, whose psychic repercussions led to whitening processes, denial of racial identity, compromised self-esteem and objectification of the black homosexual male body. Finally, it reflected on the need to train psychology professionals in ethnic-racial issues, in order to properly handle such demands and not reproducing discriminatory violence. (AU) | |
