Coming Together: Evanston Rules Virtual Reunion

As we end a year of chaos and uncertainty, we found an opportunity to come together on Saturday, December 19, 2020, and celebrate our commonality: Evanston Township High School. We reminisced and told old stories, but also dove into pertinent issues like Covid-19, the Black Lives Matter movement, and the continued brutality faced by people of color in our country.
At Evanston Rules we seek to challenge our listeners to be positive agents of change through deeper understanding. Join us in our ETHS gathering to listen, and to understand.
Thank you to all who joined and to those who shared a bit of their connection to Evanston.
