Where’s the market for artist

I’m actually so perplexed on how to sell my art. I haven’t sold any art ever everyone just looks and scrolls. And the algorithm doesn’t help me at all. I see everyone else’s art get attention and mine isn’t getting much of any attention. I apply to artist calls and magazines but they always require you to pay an absurd amount for a chance that someone will read the magazine or buy your art when they display it. More than likely someone won’t buy it and I’ll have wasted my money. I just want to know where I can post my art and someone will buy it. It’s mostly surrealist art.

Peaceful protest is a distraction

(If you don’t read this part please read the second part) Peaceful protest was often an idea perpetuated by people who were activly leading there people into a hostile enviornment. MLK did not free black people he ruined our infrastructure by advocating for intergration into an enviornment that did not like black people. The reason his peaceful protest worked was because it wasn’t challenging the system that was and still is oppressing us till this day. Protest that are not disruptive in nature do not get the job done. Pushing the idea that a peaceful one would work is just not the move honestly. We are in a crisis we are fighting wars in other countries with no money for ourselves.

(2nd part) We are having the food taken right out of our mouths we are not angry enough. I don’t mean for just black people but all people. People who actually challenge the system that keeps us devided and money amongst us scarce well those people are put down. A prime example is Fred Hampton. He did more good than MLK ever did for his community and other communities black, white, asian, hispanic, gay doesn’t matter what does matter is he was able to unite people. And he was killed by a cia agent they don’t teach this because it disrupts the system it disturbs the peace. (Sorry about the lack of punctuation)
