Muslims & Latinos unite during Ramadan---Taco Trucks At Every Mosque

[kpete]

“You’re going to have taco trucks on every corner,” Gutierrez said.

Hamida and Vazquez, a Santa Ana history teacher, came up with the idea for the first joint Ramadan event after the election of President Trump to highlight faith while hoping to help stem the rise of anti-Muslim hate crimes and attacks.

While enjoying carne asada tacos Saturday night, Santa Ana resident Michael Abdul, who was born in Peru, said he understands the symbolism.

"You cannot answer hate with hate," said the clothing salesman. "What I figured out is this religion not only unites Muslims but anyone who has mercy and is able to forgive people."

3. I'm always trying to come up with different cuisine combinations. I'm thinking. Take some

lamb kabob. Put it on that bread used for tortas. Spread some hummus or baba ganoush. Add some avocado and pickled jalapeños and carrots. Or something along those lines.
