#Australia and the #RoyalFamily's #Genocide of Aboriginal People
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, June 16, 2026
"The Victorian Court of Appeal reserved its decision on whether Aboriginal rights campaigner Uncle #RobbieThorpe can hold #KingCharlesIII responsible for genocide. Thorpe is seeking to overturn a ruling that blocked his attempt to bring genocide-against #KingCharles III and other Crown representatives.
" 'Thorpe, a #Krauatungalung Elder and long-time advocate for Aboriginal sovereignty, appeared before a panel of judges in the Supreme Court of Victoria on Wednesday, arguing that Australian courts have failed to adequately address what he describes as the ongoing genocide of #FirstPeoples' reports SBS.
"While Australian Aboriginals want King Charles III held responsible for genocide -- at the same time, the National Congress of American Indians in the United States, in an article by #ICT, honors King Charles. ICT reported on a recent visit, turning it into play and fashion.
"Prince Andrew was arrested, his title removed, and he was removed from the Royal residence, after photos in the #EpsteinFiles verify that he was with minors exploited. He is now under investigation for the sexual abuse of minors and related crimes."

Learn more about #ChiefMaquinna.
This is a collection of words, photos and video clips for Hyas Tyee #Nuuchahnulth - Chief Maquinna. A greatly respected & important Chief of the Nuuchahnulth #Haida People, of the Haida Gwaii Islands, in #BritishColumbia #Canada.
Chief Maquinna (also transliterated: Muquinna, Macuina, Maquilla) was the Chief of the Nuuchahnulth People of #NootkaSound, during the heyday of the maritime fur trade in the 1780s and 1790s, on the #PacificNorthwest Coast.
British explorer #CaptainCook went looking (like so many #Europeans before and after him)or the Northwest Passage. He ran headlong into a thriving trade and business culture on the west coast, overseen by young Nuu-chah-nulth, Chief Maquinna.
The two men's encounter would forever change trans-Pacific trade and teach the European empire a lesson in diplomacy, they've managed to forget, many times over.

After a year of deliberation, the #Netherlands has #returned the remains of nine #Indigenous people to #SintEustatius , a small #Dutch #Caribbean island also known as #Statia . #Archaeologists found these #BoneFragments three decades ago at a dig site at the island's FD Roosevelt Airport; some of the objects date back as far as the 5th century.
