iron man is a 15 year old black girl now

pandering too much to sjw's? or a bold progressive move embracing a diverse audience?
oddly she's still being called iron man instead of iron woman though i guess probably shouldn't be so quick to assume her gender

Riri Williams is 15 years old. She’s black. She wears her hair naturally. She’s a genius, enrolling at MIT. And when the dust settles after Civil War II, Marvel’s latest crossover comic book event, Riri Williams will be Iron Man.
Giving a black girl one of the most recognizable names in the Marvel universe and turning her into a flagship hero is a monumental move for the comic book company — one that will affect more than just Marvel’s future comic book stories.
