GARZON LOPEZ, Pedro. Indigenous and Decoloniality: on Colonization Western Epistemological. Andamios [online]. 2013, vol.10, n.22, pp.305-331. ISSN 2594-1917.

This paper reflects on structural oppression currently living indigenous peoples, based on the premise that, the "three legs" that support colonization "modern" towards indigenous peoples have to do-follow Latin-colonial thinking with the coloniality of power, knowledge and being. Taking this approach means pointing out the grammar Eurocentric bias in the context of otherness epistemic, and claim "other" concepts of modern lives-not denied and made invisible by the light of modernity.

Keywords : Indigenous Peoples; Coloniality of Power/Knowledge/Be; Modernity/Coloniality; Eurocentrism; Decoloniality.
