To stick with the metaphor, a rising tide may lift all boats, but there's a very real risk that any number of those boats may find themselves crashed on the rocks. If we're not very careful about ensuring that the particular impacts they will face.... Because of who they are, their identity in Colombian society—indigenous peoples, Afro-descended communities, others—they may face increased risk, not just greater prosperity and benefit as trade and investment in their part of the country increases, and if those concerns aren't addressed, then this ends up being bad news for them, not good.
