Alliance of Mutual Benefit for All Species Created
The People Unite to Form Unity Group, Electronic Global Community
Creative FRONTLINE is a movement which creates motion for people to come together to form a gap, building and crossing a bridge together.
Creative FRONTLINE Creative FRONTLINE and Savimbo https//Savimbo.org, https:/RightsofNatureNOW.com announce the Creation of an Electronic Global Community universal meeting of all interested parties regarding an Alliance of Benefit to All Species, it's first U.S. co-located stage, particularly related to California and Nevada Lands and Waters under threat from:
1. Mining,
2. Water Diversion and Water Marketing, and
3. Threats/escalating impacts to species, Indigenous and rural communities, respectful outdoor enthusiasts. Examples include Ash Meadows, NV and the Amargosa River, in California and Nevada, and
4. Centralized power in conflict with principles of democracy, benefiting the few, under the guise of local authority.
Local authority means little in a global crisis. Local authority means little when extracted waters and minerals fuel lifestyle decisions and create consumer pressure in faraway big cities, making them stakeholders and natural systemic participants, along with tribal cultural leadership, typically not invited to closed door private power grab sessions, nor consulted by attorneys, nor by agencies of the federal and state governments in regard to decision making authority.
Unity Group goals include pulling up more "chairs" to the "table."
Unity Group is an alliance or union of mutual benefit for all species, organizations, tribes, communities and countries, interested citizen parties, and mutual networks to bring a new voice, create understanding and awareness, including the mapping of relevant coordinates for sensitive areas and resources, providing documentation, information about the land, and what's at stake, with the goal of creating diverse steering committees.
Announcements related to Electronic Global Community will be forthcoming.

From the Ground Up: Creative FRONTLINE Partners with Savimbo to Support Indigenous Shamans
Creative FRONTLINE https://CreativeFRONTLINE.com, and Agence RLA, LLC https://Agence-RLA.com are partnering with Savimbo https://www.savimbo.com/about, in creating, supporting, and strengthening North American lines of communication related to healing from Trauma and Colonization. Savimbo offers experiential learning about healthy, strong, uncolonized Indigenous societies and communities.
Hear the April 2, 2024 Introductory KPFK Radio Broadcast, titled “Nature is the Dose, The Medicine is the Microdose: The Rights of Nature Movement.
From the Broadcast:
Our conversation today with Drea Burbank, M.D., set the stage for a deeper dive into the lives and cultural practices of Amazonian Shamans, the Forest they’ve united to protect, and the innovative financial structures they’ve created to compete “head on” with petroleum, mining, and logging companies and the western financial systems, governments, and agencies which favor and support them.
They’re healers and leaders in a movement known as the Rights of Nature movement, which treats our life giving, and biodiverse natural world as a living and conscious being, one with legal, moral, and ethical rights…
…that ecosystems and species have legal rights to exist, thrive and regenerate.
Fernando Lezama and Jhony Lopez, Founders of Savimbo, are Shamanic Practitioners and forest protectors, linked with a larger group of over 90 licensed Shamans across 5 modern Amazon Nations, and over 8 Ancient Tribal Groups, who work together to create positive incentives and global financial mechanisms for Amazon Protection.
They also provide experiences of traditional uncolonized values and practices including healing ceremonies using Ayahuasca and Yagé to change negative behaviors, combat addictions, and address Trauma from Colonial Destruction of traditional lands, communities, and people.
