Securing Indigenous Rights
in the Green Economy
Cultural Survival Quarterly 46-2 (June 2022)
[link removed]
Join us in celebrating 50 years of promoting and amplifying Indigenous voices! This issue of the Cultural Survival Quarterly is dedicated to uplifting the voices and struggles of Indigenous communities impacted by a new wave of extractivism for transition minerals such as copper, nickel, cobalt, and lithium, which are key in battery development for electric vehicles and other technologies. We hear from activists and community leaders about what a Just Transition to the green economy should look like and how Indigenous Peoples’ rights are central to shifting investment portfolios towards net zero.

A proposed lithium mine at Peehee Mu’huh (Thacker Pass), Nevada, has attracted much attention. But those with the deepest ties to the land - descendants of those murdered at the Thacker Pass Massacre - have not been heard. In this podcast, we hear from Gary McKinney (Western Shoshone/ Northern Paiute) about the stuggles to protect sacred lands in the age of a lithium boom due to the transition to the "green" economy.
