aggi economic success for whom?? most of us have had 10 years of austerity.. or are you referring to 1980s yuppies or that industrial age 1870s when social mobility was first created, again not sure how many black people benefitted.

Slave owners, gentry, the East India Company, royalty, lords, Britain (for a certain definition of Britain), etc

The Empire was very successful for a small group of people and there are still echoes of that now.

All British somewhat benefit from the history of empire. As distasteful as that may be.
