Mike Henry, voice of "Cleveland" stepping down; "persons of color should play characters of color"
Link to tweet
Mike Henry @mikehenrybro
It’s been an honor to play Cleveland on Family Guy for 20 years. I love this character, but persons of color should play characters of color. Therefore, I will be stepping down from the role.

Not a bad idea. So, do they retire the character, or find a black voice actor to mimic Mike Henry's voice, or just give him a new voice (by a black actor)?
