I in no way question that you got a good education, worked hard, probably in junior high and high school, went on to higher education and have built a business career.  All of which you were able to do because you are white.  These same opportunities are not readily available for black children and less so for them as they grow older.

There are exceptions but there are systems that make it very difficult for black people to break through the racial barriers.  Let me give you a few illustrations...

The first is a very helpful animation on differences between the black and white experience in the US.   Click Here  You most likely will have to copy the link and paste it into your browser.

Some other brief comments

I can buy a house anywhere I want as long as I have the money.  Not so, even today for black people

I can shop in any store I want and never wonder if I am being followed

I never am overly concerned when stopped by the police

If I sell my house I do not have to deal with lower offers because I am a black homeowner.

If you wanted me to I could send you many articles and documentation to support the existence of systemic racism in the US.  I in no way am saying you or any one else is racist. I am saying we as white people have privilege.
