A word coined by Quechua Artist Akapa Supay. This word was coined or created from a blog post he posted on his website which was titled "Financial Decolonization". In simpler terms, its true meaning is unlearning bad financial habits, while adopting financial literacy.
"Did you hear how Chester was saving up his money, used it to invest , while doubling his profit? That's some real Financial Decolonization right there"
"My rent is $1,500 for the month and I only had $2,000 to spend this month. I saw this new game system that was another $500, but when I calculated rent and purchasing the game system I didn't think it was a smart decision. I had to ask myself if It was a necessity, and because It wasn't I chose to save my extra $500. I wanted to execute my Financial Decolonization methods during the heat of the moment.

Get the Nick denholm mug.A synthesis of decolonial thought with the tools of critical theory—particularly the Frankfurt School's analysis of power, ideology, and social transformation. Critical Decolonial Theory uses critical theory's rigorous frameworks for analyzing domination while insisting that those frameworks themselves must be decolonized, freed from their own Eurocentric assumptions. It asks how capitalism, racism, and colonialism intertwine; how knowledge production serves domination; how liberation requires both material transformation and epistemic revolution. Critical Decolonial Theory is decolonial thought with the analytical tools of the European critical tradition—but turned against that tradition's own pretensions to universality.
Example: "Her book used Frankfurt School tools to analyze colonial ideology while also showing how those tools themselves carried colonial assumptions. Critical Decolonial Theory: using the master's tools to dismantle the master's house, while recognizing the tools themselves need rebuilding."

Get the Critical Decolonial Theory mug.A theoretical framework that distinguishes between pathological forms of decolonial thought (dogmatic anti-Westernism, rejection of all universal standards, performative radicalism, intellectual obscurantism) and valid forms that offer genuine insight into coloniality and liberation. Valid decolonial theory analyzes how colonialism structured not just politics and economics but knowledge, culture, and consciousness itself—and argues for the decolonization of all these domains. It draws on Indigenous, African, Latin American, and other non-Western intellectual traditions not as alternatives to rigor but as sources of rigor themselves, not as rejections of truth but as expansions of what truth can mean. Valid decolonial theory doesn't claim that Western thought is worthless; it claims that Western thought has been hegemonic, that this hegemony has impoverished everyone, and that genuine understanding requires centering perspectives that have been marginalized. It's decolonial theory as intellectual liberation, not intellectual closure.
Example: "Her work didn't reject science—it asked why Indigenous knowledge systems aren't treated as science. Valid Decolonial Theory: not dismissing Western knowledge, but asking why it's the only kind that counts."

Get the Valid Decolonial Theory mug.A framework arguing for the legitimacy of decolonial approaches in specific domains—particularly in understanding how colonial power structures persist after formal independence and how they might be dismantled. Legit decolonial theory holds that colonialism didn't end; it transformed, and understanding this transformation requires tools that mainstream Western thought doesn't provide. It draws on the intellectual traditions of the colonized not as ethnographic curiosities but as serious theoretical resources—ways of knowing that reveal what colonial power has hidden. Legit decolonial theory is decolonial thought as necessary supplement to Western critical traditions, not replacement for them but corrective to their blind spots. It asks not just "what is true?" but "whose truth has been suppressed, and what does recovering it reveal?"
Example: "He used decolonial theory to analyze how development policies continue colonial patterns—not to reject all development, but to ask why it always serves the same interests. Legit Decolonial Theory: critique as clarification, not condemnation."
