“Once in a while, I have the opportunity to share a book, that is really an educational tool. It is something that each of us needs to have an understanding of.

“This book is a masterful book to illuminate our lives and to arm us with the information, knowledge and ways we can combat these hateful forms of communication.”
“By all means, get a copy of Fred’s book, Words on Fire. This is a powerful book. It is powerful because education and knowledge is power, especially when used the right way and that’s what this book will help you do.”
