Always one to bring attention to human rights issues, Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) decided to undergo a painful procedure performed on Guantanamo Bay detainees.

Officials at the infamous detention camp have been force-feeding a number of prisoners after 106 of them went on a hunger strike.

The strike was initiated after the detainees said their Qurans were disrespected during a prison search.

And even though Ramadan is set to start this week, officials say they will continue to feed their prisoners, though they claim they will observe Ramadan and not make them eat during the day.

But religion aside, the actual process of being force-fed is less than humane. Watch Yasiin brave the tubes to demonstrate just how brutal the procedure is.

Warning: you might want to refrain from eating while watching the graphic video.
