      @@TheErikaShow Not so, Amazon, Temu & yes even Walmart has Marketplace. They act as distributors for independent vendors such as those selling fashion items so they're not responsible for the goods sold via those vendors. Best she can do is file a DMCA with Walmart but if this vendor is selling her knock off T-shirts on one site they will be selling it on many others. Even if she does get them to remove the listing you can bet that vendor will just setup a new vendor name & start up again those China based sellers are notoriously hard to stop.

    This is not a black thing, not a white thing, not a queer thing. This is about copyright infringement. It is most likely Chinese theft of copyrighted content being put on products which are then picked up by big retailers and sold for profit none of which goes to the artist who created the image. As the copyright owner the artist is unlikely to have success going after the original thieves who are overseas. However, as an American, IF the images are REGISTERED with the copyright office, you CAN go after the American retailers and sue for damages. This happened to me. I had no money to hire an attorney, but I documented EVERYTHING then was fortunate to find a firm to take the case for a %. I hope she does the same. But I’m sorry, race has very little to do with this except that her work is very successful to a certain audience. Artists….if you register your images with the copyright office, you improve your chances of success in the courts! I hope she sues all the retailers selling her stolen images. She could win a lot!

      @royalki2426 10 днів тому

      Your reply misses the point. The underlying reason for the theft may be pure greed, but because race, class, sex, and sexual orientation all have material value in the real world, the theft of the work of a Black, queer, female artist is going to impact them in ways that magnify the hardships that are already in effect.
      Sometimes, the mere mention of race so wigs some of you out, you don’t pause to consider what is actually being said.
      If someone is already a socio-economic underdog and they take a massive hit, that hit is not merely financial. It’s a tax on their humanity.
