Yasiin Bey (fka Mos Def) Attempts Guantanamo Bay-Like Force Feeding

Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) Guantanamo Bay Force Feeding

As seen on The Guardian:

As Ramadan begins, more than 100 hunger-strikers in Guantánamo Bay continue their protest.More than 40 of them are being force-fed. A leaked document sets out the military instructions, or standard operating procedure, for force-feeding detainees. In this four-minute film made by Human Rights organisation Reprieve and Bafta award-winning director Asif Kapadia, US actor and rapper Yasiin Bey (formerly known as Mos Def), experiences the procedure.

It’s not pretty.

Watch over on The Guardian.
