A mural wall pictured in Albert Street, West Belfast on Thursday, April 22, 2021, commemorates Nelson Mandela. Mandela’s relationship with Britain and its anti-apartheid movement is well-known. His connection with Ireland was no less important. He visited both Britain and Ireland in 1990 and addressed the Irish parliament, Dáil Eireann, in July of that year. His future Minister of Water Affairs and Forestry, Kader Asmal, worked in the law department of Trinity College Dublin in the 1980s, and, like Mandela, supported the Northern Irish peace process.
