I greatly believe that The Beatles really did not want to play in any Latin American countries which at the time were definitely considered THIRD WORLD. Not that the members of the Beatles were racist or ethnic centrists, but they probably felt those nations were beneath them because of the language barrier and backward culture. One has to remember, it was the 1960s, not the 2020s.

Last year I mounted a website with some of my memories about John. Recently, the website has been translated into Spanish.
