The brand expresses their support for the LGBTQ+ community by releasing a short film. 

Pride month continues as Coach announces their unique way of celebrating the LGBTQ+ community. &ldquo;Fifty Years Proud,&rdquo; a short film celebrating fifty years of Pride in New York City, airs on Coach social channels today, Monday June 24. Featuring dancers from New York&rsquo;s LGBTQ+ community and interviews with key figures, the short film is a work of art.

Only fitting, the film was shot in New York City and&nbsp;features archival footage of New York Pride celebrations from decades past, as well as the stories of inspiring young people involved with the Hetrick-Martin Institute, a nonprofit providing resources to help LGBTQ+ youth in and around New York. As part of Coach&rsquo;s Dream It Real initiative, a promise to support the next generation as they envision and create the future they know is possible, the Coach Foundation honored Pride with a donation to the institute, its partner for the sixth running year.

The vison was brought to life thanks to a massive and highly talented team.&nbsp;Coach collaborated with director Kevin Calero, choreographer Tanisha Scott, stylist Chris Campbell, makeup artist Tiffany The Artist and hair stylist Yusef Williams. Featured dancers include Shernita Anderson, Marti Gould Cummings, Honey LaBeija, Naquan Nash, Hisham Qumhiyeh and Marc Royale, with a soundtrack including five decades of LGBTQ+ icons Gloria Gaynor, Arthur Russell, Crystal Waters and Peaches. Interviews in the series include Flotilla DeBarge, Kate Frawley and Cynthia Russo, Gisella Xtravaganza, Charlene Incarnate, David Sabshon and Jay Toole.&nbsp;
