Nelson Mandela - Town Hall Interview (June 21, 1990)

This ABC News special features the first interview granted by Nelson Mandela on his 1990 visit to the United States. Mr. Mandela speaks with Ted Koppel for 71 minutes and answers questions from the studio audience. Topics covered include his 27 years in South Africa's prisons, the struggle against apartheid and its eventual collapse, and the future of a united South Africa. News footage and analysis bookend the interview and place the viewer unfamiliar with events in context. Shared for historical purposes. I do not own the rights.

    Exactly, however the ANC destroyed South Africa afterwards.Satan is also a hot guy not Nelson however hmmm he is a great orator despite his prison number being 46664 and they sai 46 664 and so forth whatever that means or try and dispute. Cuba survives and they have many inept mechanics and docters here one that misdiagnosed my grandmother and she died in extreme pain in Welkom (a mining town). South Africa was an advanced country with beautiful cities and towns. The ANC due to lack rule allowed 75000 Nigerian druglords into this country in one year 1995 -see THE STAR newspapers headlines then. There drug legion is here now. Have a good one.

    What a wise man. It wasn’t fair to be bombarded with world issues after release from prison. Issues like that was fair when he was a president or a united nation representative. Rip Madiba they will never be another one just like you. The world is still at a great loss because of you. It’s ironic that all the subjects of all people in this interview are all gone too. Also Rip Tedd Capple, Yassa Alfat, Fedel Castral, and many others mentioned in this interview. It looks like this was long time ago, but this was as yesterday because I still remember the joy around the world when Mandela was just released from prison. Amen.

    Love the way he handled each person. Straight Coffee no cream! He was truly one of a kind. His answer cut like a knife. Precise and to the point. Your enemy is not my enemy! Loved it.

    53:12 That's his wife. WINNIE MANDELA. She was the real hero. Nelson Mandela was the face of it all as a man. But the wife was there. She never fled the country. She was literally willing to die. Mama Winnie 😢😢😢

    I am very grateful to have spoken in a casual non-political way with Nelson Mandela (before he became President of SA) at the Johannesburg Zoo whilst he was on an early morning strole enjoying the big cats The Lions.. . Nelsons Liberation has helped us Non Whites to somehow improve our lives its up to us now to move forward in our own struggles fighting daily for our economic and spiritual freedom in South Africa. .. Nelsons words to me was 'Educate Yourself and make a difference to South Africa

    Thanks, I've seen snippets and clips of this discussion before. It's even more refreshing watching a full length version. In summary, Madima and his comrades had very strong convictions and principles. What separated him was the forceful defence and strict maintenance of those principles and ANC policies. The type of backbone that is missing with the current crop of comrades in leadership.
