As teachers in the US context, we have spent precious little time considering what it would mean to be prepared and ready for Black children. In such readiness, (re)cognition of the spirit and spirituality of Black people would be central in understanding and preparing for our children and families. This article asks the question: What would it mean for teachers to be ready for the spirit of Black children in schools in the way that is witnessed every day in a primary school in Ghana? Starting with an understanding of Black people and spirituality, this autobiographical account explores the extraordinary knowledge and resources -- material, spiritual, cultural, pedagogical -- that are fundamental to teaching Black children, regardless of their place on the globe.
