Video After The Jump
During Ramadan more than 100 detainees at Guantanamo Bay protest by going on hunger strikes. More than 40 of them are force-fed using military instructions, or standard operating procedure obtained through leaked documents.
Rapper/actor Yasiin Bey a.k.a. Mos Def agreed to let himself experience the procedure in this four-minute film made by Human Rights organization Reprieve and Bafta award-winning director Asif Kapadia.
The procedure looks very painful. Mos screams for it to be stopped before it's finished and begins to cry. Watch the film below.
WARNING SOME MAY FIND THE IMAGES DISTURBING.
