American Family Insurance Institute for Corporate and Social Impact’s photo book “Let’s Talk About It” available digitally

The American Family Insurance Institute for Corporate and Social Impact released a high-resolution photo book titled “Let’s Talk About It”, commemorating the city’s State Street Mural program. The book is free to the public and can be viewed digitally here.

Here’s the copy that’s on the inside flap of the book:

“Take a walk down Madison’s iconic State Street—from the State Capitol to UW-Madison’s Library Mall—to witness the images and feel the emotion that spurred from dozens of artists after the killing of George Floyd.

This unique publication encompasses striking photographs and the artists’ own words to understand their motivations and appreciate what they hope readers will feel when they see their work.

More than a hundred murals originally commissioned by the City of Madison on storefronts generously provided by downtown business owners are celebrated in this striking collection of art and protest.

Also included are original essays from noteworthy Black scholars and a special poem by Madison’s former poet laureate.

We hope this book encourages you to reflect, to consider and to “Talk About It” when it comes to issues of racial justice.”
