Mad Gifts Week: A Celebration of Diversibility

2007 October 29th - November 4th

For anyone and everyone who takes pride in being different, in a world where what’s considered ‘normal’ is killing us!

Celebrate your Mad Gifts with a week of divers-ability awareness, skills-share, discussion and activism! Show your mad pride to the world in the form of outreach workshops, language swaps, movie night, speak outs or skills-share. Make the journey a personal rite of transformation by creating a mad map, writing a poem or a song about mad pride, draw your mad map persona, or making a madness first aid kit. Build community by discussing language, stigma, social and environmental factors influencing madness, trading alternative healing methods, or forming local groups around areas of mad activism. Whatever you can dream up we encourage you to manifest it through individual or group collaboration.

Join the discussion on the forums to get involved with local and inter/national levels of cultural evolution through collective and individual movements for liberation. Contribute your ideas and activities here:
