M.I.A "Born Free"

The latest video from British born singer/rapper M.I.A. is filled with explicit, violent and politically charged themes.  The video for the single entitled "Born Free" plays like a movie and brings to mind the modern day genocide that has occurred in places such as Darfur, Rwanda and Bosnia.  Some of us take for granted the liberties that we are granted because we haven't been subjected to this type of violence.

I am not really a fan of the song but the video makes for an interesting conversation piece.  Are you "Born Free"?
