Founding Story In 1991, Brian and Carrie Johnson of Atlanta, Georgia founded Ethnic Expressions based on their dream of launching a company that would enable African Americans to turn their homes and offices into a creative place that reflects their heritage and ethnicity. Ethnic Expressions was started in a basement and a spare bedroom and the only equipment the owners had were a phone, fax, and an ancient 286 computer. The (www.mlmlegal.com) company began to grow and expanded into Brian and Carrie's living room, dining room, den, basement, garage, patio, deck, and two of their four bedrooms. Eventually, they relocated to a 10,000 square-foot office building in 1994. In 1999, the company moved again to a 40,000 square foot building. Brian and Carrie started out as consultants selling their array of art in peoples' homes.
