Sounds to me like you have a fine take on this already--why don't you
concentrate on developing this in your own way so that you become the
person others quote?

> Hello,
> I am a graduate student at the University at Buffalo and i am working on a
> thesis regarding racial and cultural hybridity in the museum. I am having
> difficulty finding sources of information for one of my chapters. The
> chapter is regarding museum consumption of the Other.I am interested in
> finding any books/articles/essay on museum restaurants and museum shops.
> My
> idea is that museums restaurants and shops displaying "ethnic" items are
> another way that the museum makes culture digestible and intelligible
> serving as a snapshot of other cultures. Through our purchases and
> consumption we participate in that culture while not abandoning the
> comfort
> of our own.
>
> I would appreciate any assistance anyone can offer. Thank you very much
> for
> your help.
