British Activists Fight For Release Of Gitmo Detainee

President Barack Obama has pledged a new effort to close the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Many of the inmates there are on a hunger strike.

In Britain, human rights activists are also campaigning to close the prison and release the last British resident being held there. His name is Shaker Aamer.
