Hudson Jeans is all about empowering people to find their voice and inspiring the power of self. They believe that one of the most powerful tools for this is the Arts and the Youth - that is why this season at Coterie, Hudson is committed to donating 10% of Sales to the Arts benefiting the following causes:

- #BARS Workshop NYC - A lab series created by artists Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal, to serve as a space for artists to investigate the intersection between contemporary verse and theater.

- Get Lit - Through an innovative curriculum that fuses classic, iconic poetry with students' original spoken word responses, Get Lit places the greatest poets of our time in dialogue with over 20,000 teens each year who transform their lives and communities through art and social consciousness.

Diggs is slated to appear in Season 3 of "Black-ish," which premieres September 21st, in addition to roles in the upcoming film WONDER with Julia Roberts and the HBO mockumentary "Tour de Pharmacy."
