11-Year-Old Girl Sent to Principal's Office for Telling Classmates to Stop Giving Nazi Salute

An 11-year-old Tennessee girl was sent to the principal's office after shouting at fellow students to stop giving the Nazi 'Sieg Heil' salute, her father said.

Keith Jacks Gamble, chair of the Department of Economics and Finance at Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreeboro, asked the public to send messages of support to his daughter in a tweet he posted Tuesday.

The dad said a history project at the McFadden School of Excellence involved a student playing Adolf Hitler for a "Living History" project. The student was to deliver the salute at the end of a speech.

But students started giving the salute on campus and allegedly bullied his daughter with the hand-raised-skyward gesture, the father said.

The girl told her classmates it was wrong to mimic the Nazi salute, Gamble said on social media.
