There are wealthy Black, Hispanic, Asian, etc. families that have been multimillionaires for a few generations (maybe even billionaires), but my question is: how did these Black and other families of color maintain their wealth through racist times?

I don’t think this is true most of the time.
In the case of black people in america though, we see that most of the hate towards them is via ideas of them being criminals or poor and lazy. If you’re rich, you circumvent all three of these things. (Because rich people apparently can’t be criminals heh) Whoopee!
I think rich people generally don’t start shit with their neighbours or social circle, rather if they do it’s more like passive aggresive shit that all neighbours are made to suffer equally. So that might be part of it.
