Here is the full statement. Notice the related articles at the bottom.
And they’re not kidding, they actually got arrested in 2016 at a protest in Philadelphia
Ben & Jerry’s is not even close to fucking around. If you go to the Ben & Jerry’s website and go to the “what’s new” tab, between articles about ice cream, you’ll see articles titled “12 Ways You Can Help Eradicate White Supremacy,” “3 Ways to Avoid Turning Climate Change into the Next Global Crisis,” and “Silence Is NOT An Option.” And these articles are from THIS MONTH ALONE. We are FIVE DAYS INTO JUNE.
They also have articles about local elections, the rights of undocumented essential workers, and the racial disparities in cannabis arrests. I urge you to go check out the web page and read their articles. They’re fantastic.
They are proponents of sustainable farming and fairtrade practices. Some of their exclusive flavors will tell you where portions of the profits for each pint go to (like Justice Remix’d, most recently). More companies should be like Ben & Jerry’s.
I’m so invested in Ben & Jerry’s it’s not even funny. They are worth every penny if only for these articles.
