The Coosuck Abenaki Tribal chief called out Ben & Jerry's for keeping its headquarters on his tribe's land in Vermont.
Chief Don Stevens appeared on Fox & Friends Saturday after he went on the record earlier this week to welcome the opportunity of"reclaiming the stewardship of our lands" in an interview with Newsweek. Ben & Jerry's began a social media campaign on July 4, asking for all native lands to be returned to native tribes."It is the home of all four of our nations," Stevens said of Ben & Jerry's headquarters Saturday.
Stevens confirmed that the ice cream company has not been in contact with him at all, let alone offered to return the land. After about 30 million Twitter users had read the ice cream company's claim that"the U.S. was founded on stolen Indigenous land" and opted to boycott the brand, Ben & Jerry's parent company Unilever's share price had fallen to $51.31, which was nearly a dollar less than it was before the tweet. The boycott would cost Unilever almost $2 billion in market capitalization.
