With the recent divisive presidential campaign and the growing ethnic and religious tensions, Amazon Prime has released a commercial that conveys unity.
Amazon's commercial features a Christian Priest and Muslim Imam getting together for a cup of tea. The life long friends chat, share some laughs, and are depicted sympathizing about the pain of both their knees.
When the imam says his goodbyes, both friends have the brilliant idea of ordering knee pads for each other via Amazon Prime. The knee pads are delivered to each other and serve as the perfect gift to cushion the floor for prayer at the church and at the mosque.
Despite the priest and the imam having full devotion to their respective faiths, the beauty in this commercial is the expression of co-existing. It is a reminder that there is a place for all the diverse philosophical and religious traditions.
The commercial suggests that people from different backgrounds and faiths can spend time together and share gifts despite their differences.
It beautifully portrays the significance of unity and touches the hearts of it's audience by giving a sense of hope for a more unifying future.
