AFRICAN AMERICAN ENERGY

The ancient expression "out of Africa always something new," speaks more to the creativity of Africa 's people, than to the vast variety of Africa's animals or plants or seemingly inexhaustible natural resources.
"There is more in the man, than there is in the land." answers life.
This Roman idiom is "out of Africa always something new," is amply reinforced by histories of science, mathematics, architecture, arts, crafts, philosophy, of the Africans of Kemet (Egypt), "the black land," and elsewhere there, on which its Roman conquerors fed, and others even now feed, eons, many renown centuries after Africa's glory epoch ended in fall from its apex of power.
"Ex Africa semper aliquid novi" (something new always out of Africa) is the Latin phrase for this adoring idiom that is the subject of this discussion.

In due course of time, not merely its people's creations, but also the "creators" themselves, the African people, were expropriated, to other places: Europe, Asia, the islands of the seas; then to the Americas, the so-called "New World;" particularly that of "United States of America."
Historian Joel Augustus Rogers, of Jamaica, in his great book, "Africa's Gift to America," brilliantly summarized in his title, what he sets forth in his book; to wit: that the melting pot of American culture blended discrete enslaved tribes of different tongues, cultures, families into a new gifted African American society, family of people, who were an amalgam of old and new; black, red, brown, yellow and white, into an inferior caste, where the "one-drop rule" was rigorously applied in society. They intended for evil lucre what God meant for man's renewal. Africans gave its riches to America from their basalt of basic humanity.
That blessed African-based human renewal manifested in a plethora of this new creature's creativity in the American national arts and crafts, heavy labor and construction, in inventions, in military service, in the sciences, in mathematics, in religion, in business, in agriculture, in government , sports , law, music. In short in everything that is known as "American," African influence is!
Thus what had begun as "fission," the separation of Africans from Africa, became "fusion" in America. Those same culturally stripped and reconstituted Africans were melded mystically into "new creatures."
They became a new force of nature. They became a new power, who amazingly had not only survived white-hot race-based hell, to love them who had vainly sought to destroy them; to bless them who have cursed them, even those who had lied, had said all manner of evil things against them; that scornfully abused and persecuted them; for even those they gave their lives!
What is this? What manner of man is this? What form of energy is this? It is African American energy!
