What does gentrification look like? What are the signs? Was that question truly answered?
In Segment 4 of the Evanston Decides 2025 Candidate Forum, 5th Ward Incumbent Bobby Burns and challenger Carlis Sutton went deep into the issues that define not just their ward, but the future of Evanston as a whole.
This wasn’t just a conversation—it was a critical discussion on displacement, community control, and power. The 5th Ward has been at the center of change, but who will lead it forward? What solutions do these candidates offer? And most importantly—who will fight for the people who call it home?
If you live in the 5th Ward, this is YOUR future. Watch. Get informed. Then show up at the polls on April 1st.
Thank you to Bobby Burns and Carlis Sutton for stepping up, to our panelists Shun Graves (Daily Northwestern), Alex Harrison and Duncan Agnew (Evanston Roundtable), to Lily Ogburn, Chief Editor of The Daily Northwestern, to Heidi Randhava, to Steven Rogers for hosting us in this historic space, and most of all, to the residents of Evanston for staying engaged and demanding answers.
Elections aren’t just about candidates—they’re about YOU. Your voice. Your power. Your home.
Stay engaged. Watch every segment. VOTE APRIL 1st.
