About the event
John Battersby, who is a former editor of The Sunday Independent in Johannesburg, was the very first person to shake Mandela’s hand after his release from prison and he interviewed him many times in the following years. He reminisced about Mandela’s humanity, spirituality, and his unique ability to see the “extraordinary” in the “ordinary”.
