Definitely gonna have to pick up the Blade and Luke Cage stories.

They didnt mention the Falcon and thats a big omission. Marvel seems to forget that the Falcon was the first black American super hero. Yes Black Panther came out first but he's Wakandan. Luke Cage got his own book, but the Falcon was on scene first. Well, maybe theyre doing him and just dont have a picture yet.

That really bothers me. I'm very glad to see BP but Falcon has been one of my favorite characters for a long time and not seeing any recognition for him while Ironheart and Shuri do is a slap in the face. Hopefully you're right and it'll be shown at a later date if its happening.
