40 Years Later: You Can Lead MLK's Dream of the IAACM!

Forty years ago today, on 1 September 1967, the Rev. Dr. Martin
Luther King, Jr. made an historic speech in front of a highly
appropriate audience.

MLK stood in front of the American Psychological Association's Annual
Meeting.

As he had for 12 years in many essays and speeches, MLK said he was
"proud" to be psychologically "maladjusted."

And as he did at least ten speeches, MLK passionately said that,
"Thus, it may well be that our world is in dire need of a new
organization, The International Association for the Advancement of
Creative Maladjustment."

The International Association for the Advancement of Creative
Maladjustment or IAACM apparently never formed.
