This document discusses the demographics of makers based on studies of Maker Faire attendees and Make magazine covers and content. It finds that makers are predominantly male, white or Asian, highly educated, and high income. It argues this narrow representation does not reflect the diversity of people who make things. It encourages the maker community to think critically about inclusion, tell diverse stories of making through different mediums and cultures, and support a wide variety of maker projects and roles. Broadening participation in making can help ensure it remains accessible and meaningful to people from all backgrounds.
