<p>In this paper, I examine the ethics of epistemic reparations in a decolonizing context. I argue there are underexplored and direct ways we must attend to the quality of our epistemic relations when engaging in epistemically reparative work. Good epistemic relations are a precondition on appropriately engaging in epistemic reparations in a decolonizing context, and potentially in a wider range of sites of epistemic exclusion. I develop a framework for thinking about epistemic relations, and highlight several advantages of the framework: in addition to opening important conceptual space for epistemic reparations in sites of epistemic exclusion, it sheds useful light on prominent existing work in the ethics of epistemic reparations, helps engage with underexplored skeptical worries about epistemic reparations in a decolonizing context, provides resources for responding to worries about privileging the perspective of the repairer, and helps clarify connections between interpersonal and structural aspects of the epistemic domain.</p>
