“I felt that if I didn’t speak up,” Boone writes, “other voices that were trying to be heard would be silenced.” Mitchell, who was dismissed from the Lena Waithe-created show last May following Boone’s and showrunner Ayanna Floyd Davis’ allegations of intimidation and abuse, is not mentioned by name in Boone’s statement today.“You don’t carelessly leave a ‘hit show’ that is praised by your community,” Boone says. “I deeply love Chicago and the people of that city who have embraced me.

After Mitchell’s dismissal from the Showtime/Fox 21 TV Studios series, he subsequently was fired from Netflix moviefollowing similar accusations from actresses on that show. He also was fired by his agency, UTA.
