Inspired by the Unvarnished exhibit developed by Naper Settlement, the NACC DEI Committee invites you to engage in an immersive learning experience that exposes how housing discrimination often based on race, ethnicity, or religion was a large-scale system that resulted in segregation patterns across the Northern and Western United States that intensified over the twentieth century.  Naperville’s history is explored, showcasing how exclusionary practices and housing discrimination manifested itself in our own community.

This program will offer drinks, appetizers, and conversation with experts who will break down the connections between housing legacies, the business sector, current local impact, and best practices for implementing DEI to be a welcoming community.

What you Gain by Attending this Program:

  • Raise your awareness and understand how business and discriminatory housing practices are connected, past and present
  • Examine how these ideas and policies affect our collective lived experiences
  • Connect with fellow attendees and panelists to discover specific immediate actions you can take to promote positive change in the business community while being more thoughtful about your DEI efforts

6:00-6:30pm:  Registration & Panel Presentation

6:30-8:30pm:  Exhibit Viewing, and Interactive Stations  (cocktails & appetizers)

8:30-9:00pm:  Networking & Continued Discussion with Experts


Panelists:

The panel presentation features people sharing their personal stories.

  • Imagine finding out that your property deed says that you cannot live in your home. Eddie and Cindy Bedford learned this while researching their Naperville subdivision. As Naperville Township Supervisor, Eddie wants to see this language removed from all deeds.  
  • Hear from Rick and Ann Covert, the first family in Naperville to work with the DuPage County Recorder of Deed’s Office to remove racially restrictive language from their home deed.  
  • Tina St. Angelo Wetzel will share her story of growing up in Naperville in the 1960s with her open housing activist parents, Reverend George and Betty St. Angelo.


“Immersive DEI” is an annual signature event produced by the NACC Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI) committee devoted to bringing Members inside a DEI topic. Through interactive, experiential, or hands-on participation, attendees learn, grow, and gain insight into ways to incorporate DEI inside business operations.


What is Unvarnished?

Unvarnished: Housing Discrimination in the Northern and Western United States is an free online exhibit examining the history of residential segregation in America by spotlighting six communities from California to Connecticut and placing their histories within a national context. Supported through an Institute of Museum and Library Services Museum Leadership Grant and the Healing Illinois Grant Program, a consortium of six history museums and cultural organizations from across the country collaborated from 2017 to 2022 to research and present their community’s history of exclusion. Online visitors will learn how housing discrimination often based on race, ethnicity, or religion was a large-scale system that resulted in segregation patterns across the Northern and Western United States that intensified over the twentieth century. Nearly two dozen interactive articles, accompanied by in-depth explainer videos, photos, interviews, and other primary sources, showcase how formal systems of segregation were developed through individual practices and expanded through federal policy, sustained over time, and continue to affect today’s communities. To view the online exhibit, please visit UnvarnishedHistory.org.

Visit Naper Settlement’s onsite companion exhibit that examines Naperville’s Unvarnished history through October 28, 2022, in the Museum Visitor Center.
