What's This All About?
In each episode, the Enemies Project docuseries pairs two people with fiercely opposing worldviews. Intense conflict, yes. But the Enemies Project is neither gotcha TV nor political debate. The purpose is for "enemies" to find the humanity in the other — because in a warring world, understanding is rebellion.
Episodes are hosted by Peacemaker Larry Rosen.
