THE DR. VIBE SHOW - AISHA K. STAGGERS - STAGGERS STATE OF THINGS - SEPTEMBER 12 - 2018

Aisha K. Staggers had her first major publication, an album review, in The New Haven Register while just a sophomore in high school. Another series of reviews published in The Hartford Courant followed. By the time she reached college, Aisha was writing for the literary magazine and interning at a local radio station, ABC-affiliate as a writer in the news department and in the A&R department of an independent record company.

As a graduate student at Fisk University, Aisha asked Dr. Raymond Winbush to chair her thesis because 1) he was one of the most renowned voices in black culture and academia, and 2) he was a Prince fan. His scholarship and guidance led Aisha to an early career as a professor of social sciences and later an administrator in higher education.

Aisha has also served as a director of education and policy research centers and on the staff of legislative commissions. She previously served on the Executive Board of the CT Young Democrats’ Women’s Caucus, an avid campaigner and has remained active in politics and public policy.

During the September 12, 2018 edition of Staggers State Of Things, Ms. Staggers talked about:

– Aretha Franklin’s funeral
– The New York Time’s I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration anonymous op-ed
