Joining host Michael Azevedo on this episode are Sarah Perkins and Josh Sabey, the co-directors of "Public Enemies, Private Friends," a riveting documentary that tells the story of two murders, a secret meeting, and an impossible friendship. On December 30, 1994, a man carrying a black duffel bag entered an abortion clinic in Brookline, Massachusetts. By the day’s end, two women were dead, a manhunt was underway, a traumatized community was in mourning, and leaders on both sides of a divide wondered what they could have done to prevent it. It was at that juncture that a six year clandestine dialogue between enemies began. Set against the backdrop of the Salvi murders and the contentious court case that followed, "Public Enemies, Private Friends," follows six women—leaders on opposing sides of the abortion debate—who meet secretly and under threat of violence in an effort to replace dangerous and divisive stereotypes, strategies, and rhetoric with empathy, tolerance, and genuine friendship.  "Public Enemies, Private Friends" will be broadcast in the Boston area on PBS station, GBH on May 30. In early June, a more comprehensive version of the story will debut on Amazon Prime as a 6-part documentary series.  Making Media Now is sponsored by Filmmakers Collaborative, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting media makers from across the creative spectrum.
