ABOUT EVANSTON RULES

EVANSTON, ILLINOIS: a one-of-a-kind city of 70,000 people. Small but mighty…

What does the city we call home, in our hearts and our experiences — the human connections we make here — mean to you?

Our love for our city doesn't make us blind; we'll talk about ways to make it better. The duality of Evanston Rules will be the heart of the conversations that past and present Evanstonians, Laurice Bell and Ron Whitmore have with their guests. 

In our podcast EVANSTON RULES, we explore the history and stories of people who have made a difference in our town. Voices of the past, present, and future cross-stitch a tapestry of our community: the opportunities, disparities, legacies, what's been lost and what can be found. 

Where are we now? How did we get here? Where do we go from here? In Evanston Rules, we’ll explore different historical perspectives and create a new paradigm, one that collectively empowers all Evanstonians.

Join us as we shine a light through dialogues — because our Evanston experiences are real and our memories live.
