She's a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst so she is self-exploring facing the darker elements of her subconscious mind. I find her research interests quite fascinating.
If it was a Trump-supporting psychiatrist and psychoanalyst saying this about blacks and she is self-exploring facing the darker elements of her subconscious mind would you find her research interesting?. Would you hope her remarks would start a dialogue?
I would not really care beyond hoping she does not act upon her hate. Same here.

Are people not allowed to acknowledge the anger that dealing with systemic racism can cause?
Especially in the context she made the comments?

Usually they are not, and this transcends racism. Imagine in an "incel" gave such a speech at an ivy league school.
Admittedly I havent checked the context, not sure how much that helps.
to be clear I agree people should be allowed to say whatever they want, snowflakes be darnded.
Nothing else matters.
She speaks of killing people because of their race
Whether the "potential victim" is white, black, or polka dot----that's dead wrong.
And she does it in the context of serious academic discourse.
If "systemic racism" really inevitably causes people to want to kill others, we would have a serious problem on our hands.
Especially in the context she made the comments?

How is this not "Hate Speech"?
I personally don't care If she wants to hate white people there is no law against it. Imagine though that it is a white college professor saying this about any non-white persons. This would be a national scandal.

It probably doesn't create that desire in mentally stable people because they can process and manage their emotions as society expects. That doesn't mean that one will never have moments of frustration where toxic, unhealthy thoughts are encountered and those thoughts need to be managed appropriately if one experiences them.
This is true whether the rage is caused by systemic racism, or the frustrations of dealing with ASD in a society that's not equipped to handle it, frustration over involuntary celibacy or whatever the cause might be.
But in order to have discussion about those feelings existing one needs to be able to describe that feeling and concede it's something that one might have.

The context would matter then too even if I would also argue that if the roles were flipped the motive that causes that impulse would be far less easy to defend.
I'm tired of dealing with racists and their attitudes.
vs.
I'm tired of seeing people who aren't white.

The audio quality available is terrible, but some fine fellow has posted it on youtube with a reasonably good transcription:
It's pretty brutal so far. She harbours exceptional hatred for anti-racist whites. You're all deranged psychopaths it seems.
I cannot even begin a conversation about racism without a steely ice-dread warning from a wh***y that I be respectful not to generalise all people because well... that's racist. In a single moment, white people reverse the conversation to tell me that I'm racist to even dare bring it up. They say this with a perfect combination of condescension and concerned white-person-teacher-voice to offer me just enough hope of salvation.

I think as time elapses this lady will turn out to be extremely brave for expressing her inner most thoughts to the public.
In reading about psychiatric therapy/psychoanalysis and part of the process is for the patient to delve into their deepest subconscious thoughts and reveal this to their therapist. Dr Khilanani is playing the part of the patient here and after some reflection has generated these automatic thoughts that lie just beneath her consciousness, She considers these thoughts important enough to share because (probably like Freud might have surmised) they might be deep seated from childhood and frightened her and as a POC she may be worried that if she has these thoughts whether other POC carry these deep seated feelings? but learn for the sake of survival to suppress them.
Why? because the impact of intergenerational prejudice and discrimination experienced in childcare, kindergarden, school and the workplace, from racist classmates, teachers, work colleagues gas-lighting, bosses , rejected job applications, people laughing at you or commenting about your appearance might drive you to a feeling of hatred that Dr Khilanani has been shocked to find she carries and has been brave enough to want to share these with her university colleagues/community at Yale.
Ironically there's a white rapper named Tom MacDonald who gives extremely good insight into what Dr Khilanani might be going through in a song called "if I was black", MacDonald has been accused of being a pro-white racist but infact he hits the nail on the head perfectly.
To answer your question a Trumo supporting psychiatrist were to utter the same things about black people would actually signify psychopathology against POC which given POCs are classified as a vulnerable population would also be a cry for help. If they said it publicly and wanted help then I would treat them the same way as calling for help is always the first step in acknowledging you have a problem. So (I am sure you were not expecting me to say this) if they mirrored Dr Khilanani's methods I would applaud them for their bravery.
She speaks of killing people because of their race
Whether the "potential victim" is white, black, or polka dot----that's dead wrong.
And she does it in the context of serious academic discourse.
If "systemic racism" really inevitably causes people to want to kill others, we would have a serious problem on our hands.
And that's why she shared her suppressed thoughts. Is it any surprise that in the past subjugated populations rise up against their tyranical overlords? obviously racism is unfinished business and POC carry intergenerational burden which many (I suspect) feel life has dealt them an unfair blow.
What should concern people is why an educated, privileged person like Dr Khilanani who is a Yale medical doctor carries these thoughts especially since she has benefited, lives a comfortable life and it goes against her medical code? Why go out of your way to shoot yourself?
What if other POC who are less fortunate/privileged suppress even greater rage?
Racism is no longer government public policy (at least since the 1960s) but it clearly has not been addressed at a more granular level.
Still listening to the "lecture". It's descended into the usual, White people have rigged the game forever. Whites have never really accomplished anything nor do they really work at anything and are terrified of fair competition against PoCs. Then this gem:
You know, that Shakespeare is a decent line writer in some circles, but if he battled Lauryn Hill or Snoop Dogg or Biggie, well he would lose. In a big way! Biggie Smalls made Shakespeare look like he was trying too hard. He would just be alright.

The video maker had a little fun with that too.

What an outrageous(ly reasonable) thing to observe.

She continues, White people can't dance. White people can't jump. White people can't really, well, seal the deal if you know what I mean. They know they were missing something. That's why they had to colonise India, Africa, South America and the whole world, because we got flair. Some of them try to rhyme, but they can't rhyme like this.
Those trying to defend this as a serious psychology lecture are facing an uphill struggle I think.
20 minutes to go... let's see what else is in store.

Rather than looking for reasons to mock Dr Khilanani I prefer to look at her reasons for going public.
If you listen to her lecture she gives a precise reason Quote -
There is a “psychological dynamic that is on PTSD repeat,” in which people of color patiently explain racism to white people, who deny their attacks. When people of color then become angry, white people use that anger as “confirmation that we’re crazy or have emotional problems,” she said.
She makes it clear that her anger is therefore a fantasy she carries, a kind of role play in her mind. I actually think her colleagues know what is happening but are embarrassed because she shared this publicly.
PTSD is a real condition. If POC people experience racism everyday and develop PTSD then how is that different to a war veteran developing PTSD or a victim of domestic violence?
I think she is giving insight to people outside of her field, My suspicion is that her fellow psychiatrists have known this for years when they work with patients who are POCs
