Julie Su, President Biden's pick to lead the Department of Labor , has been a leadingSu — who the Senate confirmed to be deputy DOL secretary in a party-line vote in July 2021 and who has served as acting secretary since March — has been a prominent supporter of CRT, according to a Fox News Digital review of her work since the late 1990s.
President Biden links arms with Julie Su, his nominee to be the next secretary of labor, during an event at the White House on March 1, 2023. Su's remarks at the event, meanwhile, were highlighted in a CRT essay she co-authored in 2002 with Eric Yamamoto, a University of Hawaii professor of law and social justice. The essay was published in an anthology of works titled"Crossroads, Directions and a New Critical Race Theory.
The essay went on to take aim at"colorblindness and individuality," saying it constricts claims against"dominant white interests." Su and Yamamoto further argue in the piece that compassion, dignity, rights and equality are not"givens" for racial minorities and that racial diversity must be acknowledged when fighting White racism.
