Australian Aboriginal senator as Lydia Thorpe , pulled a traditional cloak over the skins of a possum, interrupted the ceremony in Canberra, started barking at King Charles III and called him out for genocide, write BBC.

“You are not our king, and you are not our sovereign. You committed genocide against our people. Give us back our land, give us back what you stole from us — our brushes, our skulls, our children, our people. They destroyed our region. This is not your land,” — she told the king.

Thorpe explained to the BBC that she wanted to send a “clear message” to the king: “If you are a sovereign, you must lie to the ground. “We are not from this land.”
