Who is the Amethyst Group, its Mission, Vision, Values, Objectives and History
Background
I met Thomas on November 18, 2017 at Belo Horizonte (Minas Gerais State, captital) at the meeting at Ouro Minas Hotel where Thomas lectured at the Avança Brasil Congress and both there and through email, and other modes of communication we have made good interlocutions important to us from the Amethyst Group which I coordinate and for Thomas and his groups and people participating in the groups I have access to and also the social networks and whatsapp. From that meeting, I made the decision to support this magnificent Federalist Movement and its candidature, placing our Amethyst Group with the various forms of social networks (facebook, twitter, instagram, etc.) for this purpose and do whatever possible, most often with the consent of Thomas Korontai. And, with this intention in mind, he had the expectation that he would have such receptivity from the groups associated with Thomas, and that most of our writings were receptive, and mostly submitted to approval within the possible, and especially the first, were made with great combination and attunement, within the possibility, given the full agenda activities, mainly on his part.
Our mission
Favor as Knowledge and Values Collaborators focusing on the formation of Brazilian citizens in order of beeing more conscientious, critical in their choices and engaged in a new and growing alliance of social movements now civic / military (see document elaborating on this) that go to the streets with a critical sense and articulated by other means of communication (cellular, internet, social networks) for the purpose of continuous improvement of the country-state-nation-country which is Brazil, respecting and guaranteeing individual liberties, promoters of independent or single applications, perspective of guarantees of free initiative and free trade, with continuous improvement of the Human Being based in Republican Society (following the US / Democratic model ) and of their relations with themselves, seeking to optimize their relationship with Nature in a perspective of full citizenship with incentive legislative activities of semi-direct democracy and with continuous search for (municipal / state) in a perspective of a full federalism and other forms of action that improves Brazil's self-determination with a view to a rupture of paradigms with respect to patrimonialism (Raymundo Faoro), in the sense that in the past, to other forms of outdated / decadent tendencies that do not stimulate individual / collective freedoms and private property as socialists and communists, and allowing and returning to a real process of independente function of our institutions now based into the independence of the powers of the Republic and promoting levels beyond those already as in the military regime of growth and development, returning to the question of the industrialization of the country so demaged by development models with interests different from those of the national ones, but which will now have to be resumed with this avant-garde movement and which will be suppported and will be followed by consonant people that wish the installation of a new constitution with a view to changing the Magna Carta of this country that is not consonant with these aspirations mentioned above.Our vision

Social Sciences - IICS.PREFACEThe book
by Gilberto Martins Borges Filho tells the story of an expressive
action for the Welfare
of the Republic. The Movement on the Streets is a movement of
citizenship in the search for the moralization of political customs
in Brazil. They are idealistic young people who dedicate themselves,
as in real democracies without masters of power, to watch over the
rulers to serve the people and not to use the people.
I showed
in my book "A Brief Theory of Power" (Ed. Magazine of
Courts) that democracies, in which the voters only deposit their
votes and do not have instruments of control, of rigor, become a
simulation of a free regime, but are, in fact, a fantasy
dictatorship, that is, a masked tyranny.
The young people who
edit this book have always gone to the streets for moralizing
campaigns, seeking to sensitize society to understand that if you
want a country with respect for human rights and governed by
politicians and ethical bureaucrats, it is necessary to take to the
streets. Only then can true citizenship be exercised, in which the
Lordship will become the President, who will serve the governed, and
Your Excellency will be the citizen, whom he will serve.
For
this reason, I am glad to weave these few considerations in this
brief foreword to support the group's very brave struggle, even
though I may even diverge punctually from this or that position.
What
is certain is that if all citizens understood that a democracy does
not allow the omission of the governed and take to the streets, as do
the youth of this movement, we would certainly have a more
transparent democracy and the principle of public morality would be
the backbone of the regime.
Congratulations, therefore, to the
efforts of these young people and to the idealistic friend Gilberto
Martins Borges Filho.

Of love and hope descends to

Ouviram
do Ipiranga as margens plácidas
De um povo heroico
obrado retumbante,
E
o sol da Liberdade, em raios fúlgidos,
Brilhou no céu da
Pátria nesse instante.Se o penhor dessa
igualdade
Conseguimos conquistar com braço forte,
Em
teu seio, ó Liberdade,
Desafia o nosso peito a própria
morte!Ó Pátria amada,
Idolatrada,
Salve!
Salve!Brasil, um sonho intenso, um raio vívido,
De
amor e de esperança à terra desce,
Se em teu formoso céu,
risonho e límpido,
A imagem do Cruzeiro
resplandece.Gigante pela própria natureza,
És
belo, és forte, impávido colosso,
E o teu futuro espelha
essa grandeza.Terra adorada
Entre outras mil
És
tu, Brasil,
Ó Pátria amada!Dos filhos deste
solo
És mãe gentil,
Pátria amada,
Brasil!
And from
what I read about the beginning of the Federalism Group Plenary,
"Here we gather Patriots willing to work for a Free, Fair and
Prosperous Brazil for all", and in having inspired me in terms
of Our own Hymn, tune in, besides postures and attitudes which we
have been taking in the face of complex and undeclared national
issues after indignation and engagement as author Stéphane Hessel.

translation of the original French version, Indignez-vous!
.Since
2011, for particular reasons, I have been encouraged to engage in
demonstrations in the streets associated with the media activities of
social networks in anti-corruption movements, due to the fact that
the next of kin became a victim of corruption in the judiciary
(deviation of more than 7 million reais) in a state in the Northeast
of Brazil. During my presence in movements in the Free Vase of MASP,
I met Carla and Rita Zambelli (founders of GRUPO NASRUAS) and I was
even more encouraged to participate as a member of the group. Shortly
after I created in my family bosom the AMETHYST GROUP, semi-precious
stone, that besides its beauty is also known by esoteric people, of
perceiving its capacity to clean the character. And, participating in
NASRUAS as well as through the internet and especially in social
networks, I began to relate and get closer to the members of the
NASRUAS Group and others who shared the same ideal.Our
mission
To favor as Collaborators of Knowledge and Values for
the formation of Brazilian citizens who are more conscious, critical
in their choices and engaged in social movements that go to the
streets and are articulated by other media (cell phone, internet,
social networks) for purposes of continuous improvement of the
country-state-nation-country, respectful and personal libertarians,
promoters of independent or independent applications, with a view to
guarantees of free initiative and free trade and free initiative,
with continuous improvement of the Human Being of the Society and its
relations with it seeking to optimize their relationship with Nature
in a perspective of full citizenship with encouragement of the
legislative activities of semi-direct democracy and with the
continuous search for local autonomy (municipal / state) in a
persperctiva of a Full Federalism.
Our vision:
Being among
the main Social Groups and well articulated with other Groups -
aiming for a participation in the Convergences Group coordinated by
Thomas Korontai, to be recognized by national, international and
national and international media with a competitive differential of
bilingual (English / Portuguese) publications at a national level and
international.
Our values
With actions always in favor of
the guarantees of freedom of expression and thought, of individual
and collective freedoms, and encouragement of the free market;
Human
- always. Responsible, ethical, effective and lasting
relationships.
Proactive, agile, resolving and committed
attitude, surpassing itself day after day.
Social and
environmental
concern.

respectOur
goalAs soon as we started researching materials in
English, we realized that our movement in the streets had almost no
visibility in the international media, and our movements had little
repercussion on the target politicians. In addition, our movement,
specifically the NASRUAS and AMETHYST groups, has contributed to the
movement in a unique way in order to seek to clarify the Brazilian
population of its importance in peaceful, orderly social movements,
to collect ethics, respect and honest management of resources.
We
are concerned to speak in English language matters that would often
be restricted to the national scope and countries where Portuguese is
spoken. In this sense, we have taken to numerous international
agencies like The New York Times, Time Magazine, Newsweek Magazine,
Forbes Magazine, The Associated Press, CNN, Reuters, Die Welt,
Washington Post and Los Angeles Times reliable information of what is
happening in our country .CONCLUSIONThe
Federalism Group is a group concerned with national issues. Its
concern is the well-being of the Brazilian people in all federalist
instances. Federalism is linked to the autonomy not only of the
federal states, but also to the autonomy of the democratically
constituted Brazilian people.
On 21 February 2018 there will be
a demonstration in favor of transparent elections governed by polls
that are more favorable to voters. All those who feel injured in
their rights are invited to march towards a better Brazil.
