The Colonizer/Colonized Chicana Ethnographer: Identity, Marginalization, and Co-optation in the Field.
Villenas, Sofia
Harvard Educational Review, v66 n4 p711-31 Win 1996
A Chicana ethnographer working in a Latino community describes her multiple identities and ways that she as a "native" researcher was co-opted by the dominant culture. She challenges researchers from dominant, as well as marginalized cultures, to recognize their own complicity and form new identities as citizens-scholars-activists rooted in the community. (SK)
