Alte weisse Männer

Sophie Passmann is a feminist and disagrees with the cliché that the old white man is to blame for everything. She wants to understand what lies behind this stereotype and asks: When does one become an old white man? And can one perhaps prevent becoming one? Sophie Passmann belongs to a new generation of young feminists; these are women who are proud, loud, and self-determined. They want to become CEOs or housewives, have children or build careers, or do both. And they have an enemy image, the old white man. However, it has never been clearly defined what exactly the old white man is. One thing is clear: he holds power and does not want to lose it at any cost. But Sophie Passmann seeks certainty instead of cheap punchlines, which is why she meets powerful men to discuss with them: "Are you an old white man and if so – why?" The texts that have emerged from these conversations are among the smartest and simultaneously funniest to be found in this country.
