=== Race issues and Khmer–Vietnamese racial violence ===
{{Further|Racism in Vietnam#Race issues and Khmer–Vietnamese racial violence during the First Indochina War}}
Historian Shawn McHale notes that despite the popular notion of the First Indochina War not being a war of race and [[xenophobia]] told from the Vietnamese side, in reality many Vietnamese writers and intellectuals, which were heavily influenced by [[social Darwinism]] before the [[Second World War]],{{sfn|McHale|2021|p=138}} had increasingly employed a lot of racist and ethnonationalist-themed contents and rumors during the war.{{sfn|McHale|2021|p=131}} They included racial antagonizing the popular images of black, Arab, Khmer, and indigenous peoples, and a civilization hierarchy based on skin color in the 1940–50s polyethnic Vietnam. For instance, nationalist propaganda leaflet in the Mekong Delta in 1951 claiming how the "barbaric French" were "dyeing" Vietnamese soldiers into [[Black people|black Africans]] and [[Moroccan people|Moroccans]].{{sfn|McHale|2021|pp=131-132}}
