An Arab, a Jew, and a Truck tells the story of Ali and David, who learn to share a kosher kitchen in the Bronx and recognize the similarities between them rather than the differences. Their business, An Arab, A Jew, and A Truck, leads to engaging and entertaining situations that open a window into current ethnic, religious, and political ironies.

Ali and David’s success story is the backbone behind the Arab-Jewish Truck to Peace Foundation, which plans to carry forth the message of hope Ali and David began. The foundation aims to expand friendship and understanding between Arabs and Jews by sponsoring collaboration among Jewish and Arab artists, writers, actors, and entrepreneurs.

The foundation will officially launch this summer, with a food truck selling both kosher and halal food and it will travel to X cities across the United States. The foundation’s goal is to spread unity and peace to schools, synagogues, churches, and mosques.

“A truck can carry many things, but our trucks carry hope.”
