"You have an opportunity to make a big impact tomorrow. And not just any young people - young people in this room, young people of color, young people that come from neighborhoods surrounding this college," Gucci said. "We need to make a vote to stop all the police brutality. We need to make a vote to stop this mass incarceration."

The Atlanta rapper concluded by discussing his own incarceration: "I wish that I had my right to vote. I feel like after you serve your time, don't punish me for the rest of my life for something I already served my time for." Watch the speech above.
