And they're supposed to ring true for all black folk...but it seems that isn't the case. There's a vocal minority(?) that believes otherwise.

Absolutely rings true for ALL Blacks folks.
Here is the full speech from Dr. Clarke so you can see the quote in context.

What my earlier reply was saying was that people are going to have different interpretations of what "their group" means. It's unrealistic to not acknowledge & accept that.I happen to have a very wide view of who "my people" are but I have to respect what the next man's definition is......even if it excludes me.
That wakeup call, though.

Convicted of sex with girls in Haiti, ex-Florida man is sent to U.S. prison for 40 years

A former Florida man who operated an orphanage in Haiti will be spending possibly the rest of his life in prison for traveling to the island to engage in sex with minor girls in his care.
Daniel John Pye, 36, formerly of Bradenton, was sentenced to 40 years in prison Wednesday on the child-sex tourism offense by U.S. District Judge Ursula Ungaro.
At his fall trial, prosecutors depicted Pye as a missionary with a dark side who traveled from Miami to Haiti for one reason: to sexually abuse underage girls.
“He was going there and he knew exactly what he was going to do, to have illicit sexual conduct,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Benjamin Widlanski told a Miami federal jury, citing the testimony of several victims.
Defense lawyer Joel DeFabio countered that the witnesses’ memories “were all over the place,” and even after Pye and his wife, Leann, who testified on his behalf, had left Haiti, some of the children still kept in touch via Facebook.
“Did he get too close to the children? Obviously so, but not in a sexual manner,” DeFabio told jurors. “Undisputed, he ran an orphanage, he traveled to the U.S. for supplies and fund-raising. He did not have sexual acts with children.”
The jurors disagreed. In November, the 12-person jury found Pye, 35, guilty of traveling from Miami to Haiti on three separate dates for the purpose of engaging in illicit sexual conduct with minor girls in his care at the Jacmel orphanage and a nearby beach between 2006 and 2012. He was found not guilty on a fourth count.
Pye, who is originally from Bradenton, was arrested last March in his hometown of Ashtown, Arkansas, after a lengthy probe by Homeland Security Investigations. The U.S. government has become increasingly interested in prosecuting sex crimes involving offenders who travel from the United States to a foreign country to abuse underage children — an offense generally known as child-sex tourism.
Among the government’s witnesses: Steve Daugherty, a pastor who testified that Pye had confessed to him that he had “been in an inappropriate relationship with one of the kids.”
“She was 12 years old,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Ilham Hosseini reminded jurors during closing arguments.
“They all said they liked the defendant,” Hosseini said, referring to the young women, who were flown from Haiti to Miami to testify in the case. “He did good things for them ... but they did not like what he did to them.
“He secretly fondled their breasts, fondled their vaginas, performed oral sex on them and had them perform oral sex on him.”
