Danny Trejo

It's awesome, blah, blah, blah. I got an AA meeting. He said, no, no, no, AA, they got cigarettes. And I said, I'm a German convict. I got cartons of cigarettes. He said, yeah, but I know they, you know, hey, we can get coffee and cake. I said, come on, I got that myself. What the hell's wrong with you? And then he says, there's women coming up. They brought women to AA meetings in prison?

They don't have women's in my cell. No.

They don't have women's in my cell. No.

They don't have women's in my cell. No.

I signed up for the meeting, but the problem is when you sign up for something, you can't say, I want to go to AA to see the women. You got to say, I want to go to AA to deal with my alcohol problem. Now, once you say that, that goes in your jacket. That means everywhere you go, Oh, you have alcohol problems. They're mandatory. Every institution I went to, I had to go to alcohol.

And so I go to this meeting, and it's actually a pretty good meeting. That's where I met Johnny Harris, my... My sponsor, right. And he told me, the only thing that's going to beat you to Quentin are the headlights on the bus. So, yeah. And I said, yeah. I thought it was a compliment, you know.

And it's funny because when we pulled up to San Quentin, right, 10 years later, I see the headlights hit the wall. And I said, hey, let me walk in front of it. I think everybody on that bus had heard Johnny Ayers because everybody knew what I was talking about. And that was it. And I went to AA all the time because I had to.

No. Those are all the same. You know, everything else is segregated. Soledad is the worst because when you're walking into Soledad, the guards... are trying to keep things equal. They're trying to put White, black, Mexican, all spread out. And if they send you to like the African-Americans and you're a white guy, you better make a quick turn somewhere. You know what I mean?

If you're Mexican, same thing. It's like we segregate ourselves. Oh, really? And they usually don't want to make a big hassle out of it. They just leave it alone. And that's what the tables all have for. Oh, really? And four people. Prison is probably the most right now place in the world.
