Nowhere in his post does it mention African-Americans. In fact if you look up the etymology of the word "ghetto" its origin is actually as a word used to describe a segregated Jewish population. And I quote;
"Early in its history, the word "ghetto" denoted a walled-off and gated section in a city to which Jews were restricted. The word
was chiefly used in Italy, especially in port cities like Venice in which large populations of Jews—many of whom were traders
and money lenders—lived. Because they were viewed as cultural minorities due to their non-Christian beliefs in a Renaissance
Christian environment, Jews were placed under strict regulations throughout many European cities. They were forced to live
together in the ghetto to prevent their roaming about at night (Calimani 1). In addition to migration laws, sumptuary laws forced
Jews to wear a star-shaped yellow badge and a yellow beret, identifying them as outsiders and making them open to taunts and
various other social cruelties (Calimani 11). ...etc"
