Text of 1990 Dublin speech - with handwritten notes by Nelson Mandela

Iconic freedom fighter visits Dublin shortly after release, reminds self to mention Jackie's Army. A lovely piece of history.

Former South African president Nelson Mandela visited Ireland on three occasions - the first in July 1990, just months after his release from prison.

Mandela came to Ireland to accept in person the honour of Freedom of the City of Dublin, awarded to him in 1988, while he was still in prison.
