In 1926 a major protest erupted in the Saigon Native Girls School. A Vietnamese girl who was sitting in one of the front seats was asked to move back of the class and allow a French student to occupy the front bench. She refused. The principal, expelled her. When angry students protested, they too were expelled, leading to a further spread of open protests. Seeing the situation getting out of control, forced the school to take the students back. The principal reluctantly agreed but warned the students to crush Vietnamese under his feet.
