Vermont ice cream maker Ben & Jerry’s is honoring football quarterback Colin Kaepernick with a new flavor blending his civil rights activism and non-dairy, vegan appetite.
“Change the Whirled” a mix of caramel sunflower butter, fudge chips, graham crackers and chocolate cookies will raise money for Kaepernick’s “courageous work to confront systemic oppression and to stop police violence against Black and Brown people,” the company said in a statement Thursday.
Kaepernick, formerly of the San Francisco 49ers, sparked headlines in 2016 by kneeling in protest during the national anthem to shed light on police brutality against minorities.

Two forces have united for change. Colin Kaepernick and Ben & Jerry’s have released a new vegan ice cream flavor to help support black and brown communities. The flavor is called “Change the Whirled.”
Kaepernick’s portion of the proceeds from sales of flavor will support the work of Know Your Rights Camp, Kaepernick’s non-profit. Know Your Rights Camp’s mission is “to advance the liberation and well-being of Black and Brown communities through education, self-empowerment, mass-mobilization and the creation of new systems that elevate the next generation of change leaders.”
