WILLIE WELLS

I was branded a Negro in the States and had to act accordingly. They wouldn't even give me a chance in the big leagues because I was a Negro, yet they accepted every other nationality under the sun.

One of the main reasons I came back to Mexico is because I've found freedom and democracy here, something I never found in the United States.

Ignorance is pitiful! If you are ignorant and stupid, you are sick - white, black, green, I don't care.
