Now that the Black Panther has become Avengers chairman(team leader), the only question is WHY it took so long? as far back as 1977, the Panther remarked to the Beast- "in my own country I am King!" Storm and the Wasp have been team leaders of the X-Men and Avengers respectively(as has Spectrum- formerly Captain Marvel, Photon and Pulsar), so neither race or gender could have been the issue-the only reason is simply that BP is a BLACK MAN! As is also the fact that both Dr.Doom and Prince Namor are routinely referred to by their royal rank but T'Challa NEVER(or rarely is)- more subtle racism?
