🎙️ “You can ignore it, you can complain about it — or you can do something about it. And I feel better doing something about it.” — Ben Cohen


In this episode of Out Loud, host Ahmed Eldin sits down with Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben & Jerry’s, for a fearless, heart-centered conversation about war, justice, capitalism, and conscience.

Ben has never been shy about mixing business with bold values. Now, he’s become one of the most unapologetically vocal Jewish-American critics of U.S. policy in Gaza — and he’s not backing down.


We dive deep into:

  • Why he disrupted a Senate hearing over U.S. military aid to Israel

  • How his Jewish upbringing shaped his activism

  • What links Gaza and Flint, Michigan

  • Why being bullied as a kid gave him a lifelong sense of justice

  • The difference between caring and acting

  • And what it really takes to bend the arc toward justice


“They’ve sold their soul to the money. And I don’t think that’s what the people really want.”
