John asked me to help examine the long-standing relationship between Brothers K and south-east Evanston. John wanted to pay tribute to how welcoming the residents of the neighborhood have always been to the business, and how the coffee shop, a staple of civilized society, has tried to return the love by serving as a meeting place, a de facto community center, a "third-place" destination, and a landmark. Instead of doing this, I drew John and Brian as pigeons and put little hats on them.”
