Summary |
As exciting and fast-paced as the game itself, Breakin' the Glass examines the promise and power of women's professional basketball. Leech and Munsch interview the founders and players of the American Basketball League. Athletes discuss what it means for women finally to have the opportunity to play professional basketball in the US. Chronicling the rise and fall of the ABL, Breakin' the Glass provides insight into the politics of professional sports. A testament to the importance of women role models, Breakin' the Glass is an excellent motivational and empowerment tool for women and girls of all ages |
