Dear Jeff, There is a genocidal atrocity underway in Colombia that threatens a highly sophisticated precolombian tribe known as the Kogi.
If you aren't familiar with these people, they are extraordinary, and I urge you to take an interest. The documentary mentioned below is one of the most extraordinary films I've witnessed. Please have a look.
I'm pasting from a thread on the Democratic Underground BB. Links are included for further information included details of how their land has been ruined by the drug irradication poisons.
Thanks and keep up the good work, Zorbuddha

Silent US Genocide against the "Heart of the World: Kogi Indians"
My head is EXPLODING! I am so outraged right now at what I have just learned about what has been done to the beautiful Kogi tribe of South America by the MURDEROUS thugs controlling our country.
Let me explain: In the early 90's I saw a documentary called "From the Heart of the World: A Message from the Elder Brothers"
It haunted me for years- a BBC employee made the film. I saw it once and could not stop thinking about it for years. I finally tracked it down, thanks to the net, and corresponded briefly with the man who made the documentary and discovered that I could get a copy.
In short, the message from the Elder Brothers, as the Kogi refer to themselves, was based in CENTURIES of spiritual teaching regarding a mountain which they believe is the heart of the world- the message? When the mountain began to die, so would the world. HELLO? Global warming has fulfilled this warning.
Well, I just went to the Foundation trust site for the Kogi and found this: An Open Letter to the President of the United States: PLEASE READ IT AND FULLY COMPREHEND WHAT HAS HAPPENED. http://www.taironatrust.org /
Like I said, knowing what little I do know about the Kogi, one of the last Indigenous peoples to remain as they have for CENTURIES on the planet, a BEAUTIFUL society living in complete harmony with the planet, my head is exploding. The utter EVIL that the Bushites are doing on this planet MUST stop. NOW.
About the Kogi: http://www.labyrinthina.com/kogi.htm
"The Kogi know secrets about nature that would make our scientists rethink their ideas on the environment and the universe. They have a presence about them that commands respect. The power of their mind is beyond comprehension. But few people outside of Colombia know who they are and what they represent. Why do they call themselves the Elder Brothers and how can we learn to live in the spiritual world that this lost tribe lives in?
8 years ago I saw an amazing video called "From the Heart of the World, The Elder Brothers Warning." It was about a unique indigenous community that lived in Northern Colombia who say they are keeping the world in balance. I was so impressed with these people because they are still living with the same spiritual values and traditions of their ancestors. But the ecological warning the Kogi shared touched a nerve and made me realize they may be right."
