"An African Version of Wonder Woman--seen briefly in Super Friends comic"
Her name was Nubia. She appeared first in Wonder Woman in the early to
mid-70's (?), in the period soon after Diana regained her powers. She was
Diana's sister. That version had Queen Hippolyte instructed to form two
infant girls, one from light clay and one from dark. But before the gods
appeared to bestow their gifts, Ares abducted the one child (yes! twins
separated at birth!). So only Diana received the gods gifts. Ares
controlled the raising of Nubia, making her into the complete warrior.
Nubia (under Ares' influence) reappeared as an adult to challenge Diana to
the title of Wonder Woman. Diana beat her, in part, by discovering that
Ares was magically inducing Nubia to fight a battle that she had no true
interest in fighting.
I stopped buying the Wonder Woman comic for a while, so I don't know what
happened to Nubia in the remainder of the pre-Crisis continuity.
If you're looking for even minor characters, in the post-Crisis Wonder
Woman story, the Captain of the Amazon Guard is a black woman named
Phillipus. She has no "extra" powers beyond that of the other
Amazons, but she achieved her position through a trial by combat, and has
shown herself to be a superior tactician and strategist.
