I thought about it but I couldn’t think of a proper answer.

I guess it would make the most sense to let the colonized decide what to do with the colonizers, since they are the victims.

And what would happen with the people that were brought in as slaves by the colonizers?

I hope someone smarter than me can explain 🙏🥺

    I’ve had a scroll through and many of the answers seem to relate to the US, which doesn’t show any evidence of undergoing decolonisation any time soon.

    A better example is the Chilean constitution that was put to a referendum relatively recently, albeit unsuccessfully: its key features were recognition of Chile’s plurinational status, with added rights for indigenous people and communities. Have a read about it here:

    Bolivia has a plurinational system too, but I am not as familiar with it so can’t vouch for it.

    In any case, Latin America is where to look. From a brutal experience of colonisation and US/UK backed dictatorship to what is slowly becoming a recognition that justice needs to be done. They’re way ahead of the west.
