I'm honestly so disappointed in not only the lack of diversity in film photography, but also the overwhelming amount of men who don't see it, don't care about, and try to mansplain to me that its not important.
Also "It's always been this way" is the absolute weakest excuse someone can give for high camera and film prices.
If you have a box of cameras sitting in your closet, share the wealth. Take those things down to your local school or community center and maybe even offer to teach people how to use them.
Sharing our resources and knowledge is the only way to guarantee that film photography will continue on for decades to come.
