Jeanine’s teaching at Naropa University focuses on addressing the ecological crisis through critical thinking, unraveling of worldviews, connecting with all of life, and aligning practices with ecologically healthy modes of being. Jeanine is involved with multiple social justice and consciousness–based organizations. She is interested in the process individuals go through to reach heightened awareness of environmental and social justice. Much of her understanding has come through her experience as an African American woman living in privileged communities.
