| Abstract | Two forms of discrimination against indigenous people in Ecuador are examined: ventriloquism, when non-indigenous people speak on behalf of indigenous people; and public racism, when State authorities use repression based on the humiliations practiced in their colonial past. The example of ventriloquism discussed is the concept of good living, or Sumak Kawsay, during Rafael Correa’s government. The examples of public racism are taken from the repressive practices of the security forces of the regime. This article also reflects on the role of some decolonial scholars in informing and promoting the policies of the government of Rafael Correa towards indigenous peoples and the environment. It is argued that while these academics have called the regime decolonial, its ventriloquist and repressive practices are based on a repertoire with deep colonial roots. |
