Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the process of racialization of immigrants and refugees in the Brazilian reality in the light of psychoanalytic, social-critical and decolonial theories. As an object for this reflection, we started from our clinical-political work experience in serving this population in different contexts and supported by a field diary of one of the authors. We conclude that racism and its effects should not be "feared" words in the office of listening; on the contrary, we should fight them by giving space to symbolic production.
