When Karen Okonkwo launched one of her first ventures, Sorority Secrets, she was shocked when someone asked her why she did not feature any people of color on her website. Being a black sorority member herself, she couldn’t believe she had unconsciously created a site with a lack of diversity. Years later, Karen met a photographer and suggested he could do something about the issue she had come across with stock photography. Needless to say, they both teamed up to create TONL.
