Abstract
Debates regarding the silencing of minorities and the marginalisation of those colonised is not new. The process of perpetuating colonialism is seen in the narratives regarding immigration of those from the global North who occupied places and spaces in the global South. To critically analyse the discursive reality of tourist routes in the three states forming the Southern region of Brazil, we conducted documentary research on the 50 tourism routes in Southern Brazil. The Critical Discourse Analysis reveals that colonial narratives used in the promotion of tourism routes are contributing to silencing non-European voices and perpetuating a systemic marginalisation of Indigenous and Quilombola groups.
