Thursday, September 22, the first edition of the festival “Demain le Sport” takes place at the Maison de la Radio. The opportunity to carry out various reflections on the future of sport. Conferences are organized around the place of sport in society. If sport is often synonymous with leisure and fulfillment, between clichés and stereotypes, it is also sometimes a vector of violence. Can we imagine the sport of tomorrow without clichés?
Lotfi Lamaali, longboard dancing world champion and Eva Martinello, e-sport journalist are in the Talk to discuss it. Manon Mella also receives the dancer Maïté Dugenetay.
Whether in amateur or professional practice, sport is not immune to stereotypes. Football for the boys, gymnastics for the girls: beyond individual preferences, it seems that gender stereotypes die hard. But age, social class or ethnicity also turn out to be determining and sometimes discriminating categories in the practice of certain sporting disciplines.
However, in recent years, many voices have been raised against this discrimination and the persistence of certain stereotypes. It is notably through the practice of new sports, which are being institutionalized, that inclusion and diversity become considered issues.
Join us from 6 p.m. Monday to Friday on the franceinfo Twitch channel to participate in Manon Mella’s Talk. An hour of exchange, clarification, debate around topical and social issues.
