The Dr. Vibe Show™

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 October 10, 2018 edition of Staggers State Of Things, Ms. Staggers talked about:

– Brett Kavanaugh as a new member of the United States Supreme Court
– Nikki Haley resigning as United States Ambassador to the United Nations
– 45’s op-ed Donald Trump: Democrats ‘Medicare for All’ plan will demolish promises to seniors in today’s USA Today
– Eric Holder saying “when the Republicans go low we kick them”
