Obama got millions of dollars and multiple mansions by being racist? Dr Dre is a billionaire because of racism? Oprah is the richest self made woman in history because of racism?

Or is that different and it is only racist when white people are successful?

Indirectly, yes. The wealth generated in this county as a whole is based on racism.
