Accompanying event for the exhibition SHE CAN KICK IT!
Sports journalist Lena Cassel reads from her book »Aufstiegskampf – Vom Seitenrand in die Primetime«.
A working-class kid with both feet on the ground, queer, outspoken, and humorous – Lena Cassel represents a new generation of female sports journalists. Her story of rising through the male-dominated world of football is also a reflection of a changing country and its favorite sport.Without football, Lena Cassel wouldn’t be who she is today. But without women like her, football wouldn’t be what it is today either – a sport for everyone.
»Football urgently needs new perspectives – and Lena Cassel embodies exactly that.«
Laura Freigang, national team player
