I'm cool with Falcon being Cap-- in fact, I kinda wished that he inherited the mantle back when Rogers died after Civil War.
I do think, though, that this isn't being done as any sort of natural progression of characters or story, and more just a way to garner attention and get pats on the back for being 'so progressive.' Otherwise a black Cap and a female Thor wouldn't be rolling out at the exact same time.
So, it's a good move, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth because I feel like they're doing it for cynical reasons.
