Let’s explore what that means. Free, Prior, and Informed Consent ( #FPIC ) is a specific right granted to #IndigenousPeoples recognized in the #UnitedNationsDeclarationOnTheRightsOfIndigenousPeoples , aligning with our universal right to self-determination. FPIC allows Indigenous peoples to provide, withhold, or withdraw #consent, at any point, regarding projects impacting our #territories, and it provides us the opportunity to engage in negotiations

However, according to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, the Paiute and Shoshone people are entitled to Free, Prior and Informed Consent ( #FPIC ) before their homelands are potentially desecrated. This right has been neither acknowledged nor respected by #LithiumAmerica nor the #USGovernment.
