Don’t buy anything from Fine Art America or Pixels.com. These businesses have F ratings and alerts from the BBB for a slew of unanswered complaints about art theft, unlawful advertising, and products that don’t arrive or arrive broken, only for those customers to be denied refunds. The sites are full of AI slop which drowns all the possibly legit artists. I have also previously called out artists from these websites for appropriating Native artwork. Save your money and support artists directly!

' “Some think learning your own Indigenous language can hold you back in society,” Lee said. “We were kind of forced to believe that through the boarding school and assimilationist educational practices. So we’re trying to counter that now and show how learning your own Indigenous language is not going to hold you back. Actually, it’s the complete opposite.” '
