“Was Moses wrong when he refused to ordain anyone outside the Israelite tribe of Levi?”

Why the reference to Levi? That had to do specifically with a tribe of people. Does that context justify the ordination of one skin color over another?

Because it was the tribe of Levi who were ordained into the priesthood at that time. Others were not. It points out the fact that God has restricted ordination to a particular group before, and is free to do so at any time as He sees fit.
