Sandy Greer is a documentary filmmaker, writer and educator. Her life’s work has focused on social justice, particularly as a freelance journalist and part-time educator, communicating insights to deepen cross-cultural understanding of Indigenous peoples, through news stories as well as media literacy workshops around North America through the 1980s into the early 1990s, when she began graduate studies at the University of Toronto. Her Masters thesis focused on the 500-year trajectory of cultural racism, while her Doctoral thesis focused on healing and renewal for helping professionals. The latter was based on spiritual psychology studies that influenced her insights about the inner life of her documentary film subject Everett Soop, and the observation that our human condition is based upon socialization processes that camouflage the deeper soul wounding that we inflict upon ourselves in all human societies.
