With Louie the alignment of his creativity and passion with his goals enabled him to create his business.
Eighth Generation is a Native-owned and operated company based in Seattle, Washington. It was founded in 2008 when Louie Gong (Nooksack/Chinese/French/Scottish) — a Native artist, activist and educator widely known for merging traditional Coast Salish art with influences from his urban environment to make strong statements about identity — started customizing shoes in his living room.  Now the first Native-owned company to ever produce wool blankets.
