Highly-cited & now venerated texts were regularly published outside the flagship journals of the author's field or not with top academic presses.

Example: Clifford Geertz's, The Interpretation of Cultures, which has his chapter on "Thick Description" was published by Basic Books in 1973.

Damien Marley in front of Egyptian icons telling us “some of the smartest dummies, can’t read the language of Egyptian mummies”

Damien Marley in a hooded robe and Nas with a crown on a thrown proclaiming, “you buy a khaki pants and all of a sudden you’re an Indiana Jones. You thief out the gold, thief out the scrolls, and even the buried bones”

When I finished undergrad, Damien Marley & Nas had dropped the song ‘Patience’ where, among other things, they offer a scathing critique of archaeology and its harmful irrelevance to Black and Native peoples. I decided then I’d teach a class one day with that song as the anchor. I did it y’all.
