Biography:
Dr. Aristotle Winger obtained his Ph.
D at the age of 26 from Carnegie Mellon University
in the area of Mathematical Sciences. A graduate
of the Howard University Class of 1998, he is
much more than just a mathematician.
He
has been Professor of Mathematics at Emory and
Henry College in Southwestern Virginia since
the fall of 2004. He was nominated for Virginia’s
“Young Professor of the Year in 2006.”
In addition to his professorial duties, he serves
as an advisor to students in addition to giving
lectures across the country on various topics,
mathematical and otherwise.
Aristotle
was born in Washington D.C. and grew up there
in a time where the nation’s capital was
known as the “Murder Capital of the World.”
Despite that, he went on to become valedictorian
of Dunbar Senior High School, before moving
on to Howard University at the age of 16.
His
current focus lies in the “Mathematics
of Social Justice” and “Quantitative
Literacy.” He has lectured on how mathematics
can be applied to solve social justice problems
like racial profiling, unfair hiring practices
and the perception of the African American as
less intelligent. Lectures and writings on these
topics can be found at http://dcsouth.com/articles.html
or http://dcsouth.com/lectures.html
Aristotle
is a Co-Founder of DCSouth.com along with Michael
Young. One of the site’s many goals is
to present a diverse group of activities under
the slogan “Those who do nothing, should
expect to get nothing.”
This
and other radical points of view are evident
on “The Flagship,” the radio show
Aristotle hosts on WEHC Radio 90.7. The show
covers topics from sports to current events.
Topics have included:
1.
Why Nelly and others like him are destroying
the image of women in society.
2. How Michael Vick’s “Keeping it
Real” ruined his career.
3. How T.I. being jailed is a good thing for
his career and what that says about our society.
4. A controversial interview with the minister
Terry Durham, the nine year old preacher sweeping
the nation.
5. How Jam Donaldson is doing more harm than
good to the image of African Americans.
