There is plenty black author, they always has been there, they just don't get pick as often by supporting structure or find investment. It's slowly changing because social media allow to reach mass people instantly. That's why there is so much friction with diversity, unheard voice are suddenly heard, people realize they aren't alone and share together their finding. Also a lot of creation are made in reaction from a pressure to stay low status by the infrastructure, they don't have that taste of being carefree triumphalism and tend to recall that status implicitly, nobody want to feel low status even if they cheer at attempts to break from the status, so there is an implicit interior shame, it does not come off as something that has a natural and intresec evidence and certainty of its value. That's why I found your work with the malaika princess anime so refreshing, it has that natural confidence, it's not trying to prove itself.
Yeah there is many others black artist and all
I m getting a lot of black artist friend demands on my facebook these late days (no idea why ) and yeah it's true that we dont get as much chances as the others in mainstream stuff of course.
There is also the fear of releasing something
Blacks overthinks way too much or think the wrong way
Instead of thinking for the future , we think for the Now , wich is sad.
That's why the others do better , they think
long time in the futureThat's why they flood the market of their products cause they think right.
We, there is many random fear among usWe need to trust each other and wave each others to the topDoesnt matter if the product is
flawed,
putting something there is the most important thing ever , not putting masterpiece
The fear of completion is real even if you gonna deny that , it's so huge , it's scary
