What we can do together!
YOU ARE PART OF IT!
Watch this message and take a glimpse into The Kogi, an ancient Colombian civilization that might just hold the answer to the climate crisis happening across the world right now. The Kogi have an important understanding of environmental management. Having studied the planet for hundreds of years, they can teach us how to take action and protect the planet that we all share. Our climate crisis is a spiritual crisis.
Deadbeat is working together with The Kogi, Jaguar Siembra, and WaterBear towards a vital impact campaign. In order to preserve the Sierra, The Kogi need to buy back the land that was stolen from them and recover the balance of the ecosystem. Returning lands and giving titles to Indigenous people is one of the first steps to reversing climate change.
​
Let’s take action. We can help donate funds to buy back their land.
Your donation is invested in our community projects.

“Zigoneshi, this word means a lot to us, I help you, you help me, I need you, you need me. This relationship, this exchange, is between us, with you, but also and above all with nature. You take things without ever rebalancing what you take, that's why the earth is sick. We must go back to the zigoneshi, we, the older brothers, with you, the little brothers, together, with nature. We must make peace with nature, and dialogue with her. If we protect it, it will protect us, otherwise…”
