Ben & Jerry’s Co-Founder Ben Cohen Burns Bill of Rights Outside Department of Justice

Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Ben Cohen set fire to a replica of the Bill of Rights Thursday outside the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C.

The businessman, activist, and philanthropist led a protest outside the DOJ to criticize the treatment of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and emphasize the importance of a free press.

“Little did we know that our greatest struggle would be when we tried to bring the First Amendment to the United States,” said Cohen, who resigned as CEO of Ben & Jerry’s in 1996.
