What should they do with the items in their custodianship? And how can they help us to understand and appreciate other cultures?<br><br>Informed by a lifetime of research and scholarship, this subtle and original work tackles painful questions about race, colonialism, difference, and cultural appropriation. The result is a must-read for anyone concerned with the coexistence of different modes of life.
