Seven African American women educators provide racial and community uplift to their beloved Indianapolis, Indiana in 1922.

Greater Than Ourselves: The Legacy of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Incorporated, tells the story of how seven Black, female, school teachers established one of the nation's premier social service organizations, in America's heartland, during one of the most tumultuous periods for race relations in American history. The film is a hybrid documentary, taking us from the historical beginnings of the sorority in 1922, through to the organization's celebration of their 100 year Centennial celebration.
