An easy way to participate in the IAACM is to do a simple skit to "screen for normality," similar to an airport screening. Developed by Patch Adams clown troupe in Florence, Italy, you just need a few simple props. You can then screen your willing colleagues, friends, relatives and even strangers. If you video and upload your skit, tag it as IAACM. Just be sure to follow MLK nonviolence guidelines. This video is less than three minutes.

MindFreedom has conducted more than 1,000 such screenings. So far no normality has been discovered.
