As Seen On
Can We Heal the Greatest Divides of Our Time?
We are a society divided, in a time when coming together and understanding one another is critical
Almost every day there’s another polarizing issue—from gun control to abortion, to policing, to race relations, from transgender to religious tolerance — most of the country is on “one side” or the “other”. We don’t know how to have constructive dialogue, so we’re avoiding any dialogue whatsoever, or worse…
Everybody’s talking about it, but nobody knows how to fix it.
We decided to try. And it worked!
Introducing… the Behind The Glass Series
WHAT
We brought 2 opposing groups together for the first time ever (Trump Supporters & Recent Immigrants, many undocumented) in what is now known as the Behind The Glass social experiment.
Using a one-way mirror and innovative techniques from market research and psychology, we wanted see if we could bring them together. The unthinkable happened – reconciliation, and common ground. The first episodes went viral very quickly.
WHAT’S NEXT
We realized if the Behind The Glass method worked with these two groups, it could work for many others.
Maybe we’re not so divided after all, we just need the right vehicle to communicate. What if we did this again, and again? With each of the most controversial issues of our time?
Our mission is to continue this experiment one issue at a time, to see how many issues we can heal.

NEW FOOTAGE!
Watch Never-Before-Seen Clips From the
Behind the Glass Series
After the two sides can’t agree, Elizabeth facilitates a discussion using a psychological technique. At the end of the second clip (end of Part 2), the two sides that were once so divided, end in gratitude for each other - which is pretty astounding. We haven't seen these two groups interact like this, until now. The experiment worked!
