"In 2000, Mos Def performed a benefit concert for death row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal.[41] In September 2005, Mos Def released the single "Katrina Clap", renamed "Dollar Day" for True Magic, (utilizing the instrumental for New Orleans rappers UTP's "Nolia Clap"). The song is a criticism of the Bush administration's response to Hurricane Katrina. On the night of the MTV Video Music Awards, Mos Def pulled up in front of Radio City Music Hall on a flatbed truck and began performing the "Katrina Clap" single in front of a crowd that quickly gathered around him. He was subsequently arrested despite having a public performance permit in his possession.[42] On September 7, 2007, Mos Def appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher where he spoke about racism against African Americans, citing the government response to Hurricane Katrina, the Jena Six and the murder conviction of Mumia Abu-Jamal. He appeared on Real Time again on March 27, 2009, and spoke about the risk of nuclear weapons.[43] Mos Def said that he did not listen to any of Osama Bin Laden's messages because he did not trust the translations.[44] In July 2013, Mos Def appeared in a short film, released by the human rights organization Reprieve, depicting the forced feeding methods used at the Guantanamo Bay detention camps. This occurred after a document containing the military instructions for the procedure was leaked.[45][46"

How to insert your NG tube! (Nasogastric feeding tube)

[KC_Conspirator]

There must be a problem. I sat through the whole video stone faced, unemotional, even when they had the part with him fake crying. Maybe it was the thought of the Gitmo detainees killing all those innocent people that made me hold back the tears?

[Blood of Tyrants]

I agree with the rapper. Stop force feeding them and let them die. Then pack them in salt fatback and bury them at sea.

[ApeStyle]

Couldn’t possibly care less. If I was in charge we would just hang the goat-effers.

[FortWorthPatriot]

Well, cry me a river, Mos. Overact much? I imagine that, had he simply relaxed, the tube would have gone down without a hitch.

[Drill Thrawl]

I agree. This force feeding business is horrible. We should just let them starve.

[EthnicAmerican]

So what should we do? Let them starve themselves to death and become martyrs? Then the UN and Amnesty International et al. would say, “Look, you fascists are killing these poor souls!”
