I wish they would create new original black characters instead of just making white characters black.

The series will focus on the family of Lucius Fox, the head of Wayne Enterprises, Ridley said, adding, “This is a family that has secrets, has kept secrets from one another. It’s a little bit different dynamic than the Batman that we’ve always seen.” In DC’s central comic book continuity, Lucius Fox’s son Luke has fought crime under the name Batwing; a comic book storyline where Luke Fox becomes Batman has been a longterm rumor in fandom over the last year. The four-part series will run alongside the core Batman series by James Tynion IV and Jorge Jimenez, and Ridley will also be contributing a short story with artist Oliver Coipel to the September anthology Batman: The Joker War Zone, spinning out of a storyline in the main title. Notably, that issue has been announced as featuring Luke Fox.
....
So it's not Bruce Wayne, just some other character.

The thing that happens is that people will see the character is Black and not worry about reading the books. Spawn worked because he wasn't revealed. Look how many Black sidekicks to White characters either move up or replaces for a short time. Milestone had a whole universe of Black superheroes and they are all gone after folding into the DCU. I don't think there is one original Black superhero comic that is ongoing that began as a Black character from page one.

Black Panther? How many canceled series? There is a difference between being a known character and having a long running series and being popular.

Don't know about being popular, was just responding to this: "I don't think there is one original Black superhero comic that is ongoing that began as a Black character from page one. " as I believe Black Panther fulfills that statement.

This bears repeating since the natives were starting to get restless.

Outside of Black Panther you may be right. And even that title has been cancelled many times to restart.
However, its a worthy goal and the attempt must be made.
In any case, not to worry, they're not turning Bruce Wayne into a black character. The upcoming story involves Lucius Fox family, characters who are already African-Americans.

There is room in the comic universe for a black Batman.
