She studied political science at the University of Toronto. She was an actress and author before being the host of ''counterSpin'' on CBC Television in 2001, and then hosted ''ZeD'', also for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. She began her career on ''counterSpin'' with a special on the September 11 attacks. She called herself an "activist," saying "it's a journalist's job to activate change through information... Who isn't passionate and is in the journalist field, otherwise I don't know what would drive you?" After leaving ''ZeD'', Ziya Tong took over as host. Lewis subsequently established the company urbansoul inc., which promotes the art of minority women.

During her acting career, she appeared on ''Degrassi: The Next Generation'' as the mother of Jimmy Brooks, who was played by rapper Drake. She also appeared in the film ''Troubled Waters''.

In 2017, Lewis directed her Afro-futurist feature film ''Brown Girl Begins'', a feature film prequel to the celebrated novel ''Brown Girl in the Ring'' by Nalo Hopkinson.

In 2024, she directed the mid-season premiere of ''Power Book II: Ghost'', from the Power franchise.
