It wasnt that long ago. Secondly, slavery and the following decades after prevented slaves and their descendants from building generational wealth while others were able to do so using the labor of those slaves. Slavery ended 155 years ago, you'd have to find an elderly black person who is in at least their 80s, and would have had to have been around when their grandparents were around, which would have made them over 100, let's say you had a black person who was a slave in 1860, and they were 14, that would have made them born in 1846, by the time their grandchildren were born, they would have been 94 years old, seeing as how an 80 year old black person would have been born in 1940 Your second point is also false, there is nothing stopping people of color from being millionaires today --- Shoe Salesman.
