I rarely consume milk products because of lactose intolerance, but I have vowed to purchase Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream every week.
I will support those folks who support us.
Here's their statement in reference to Black Lives Matter. (Bold is mine).
We believe that saying Black lives matter is not to say that the lives of those who serve in the law enforcement community don’t. We respect and value the commitment to our communities that those in law enforcement make, and we respect the value of every one of their lives. But we do believe that—whether Black, brown, white, or blue—our nation and our very way of life is dependent on the principle of all people being served equal justice under the law. And it’s clear, the effects of the criminal justice system are not color blind. All lives do matter. But all lives will not matter until black lives matter.
