Regardless of what the majority of people say, progressive American rhetoric remains miles ahead of its deeds (see King’s brilliant sermon “Paul’s Letter to American Christians”) and gradualism is not the answer. 
Bila ya kujali watu wengi wanasema nini, kauli za Marekani ya uanaharakati wa maendeleo ziko maili nyingi mbele ya matendo (angalia mahubiri ya King “Waraka wa Paulo kwa Wakristu wa Marekani”) na utaona kuwa harakati za kufikia malengo pole pole siyo jibu.
