In the video, the "Creed" actor says: "We're gonna go surprise some people real quick - knock on some doors - it's crunch time everybody let's vote."

"This midterm election, exercising your right to vote is more important than ever."

The group is using the hashtag #VotingWhileBlack to track the movement.
