Le Paria, a newspaper founded by revolutionary journalist Nguyen Ai Quoc – later President Ho Chi Minh – published its first issue on April 1, 1922 in Paris. Although it operated for only four years, the paper left a profound impact on French public opinion and especially on anti-colonial movements across the colonies. As Vietnam celebrates 100 years of revolutionary journalism, Le Paria is once again being honoured for its significant role in the country’s press history.
