BOB DYLAN SOLD HIS SOUL TO SATAN
The premise of The Devil and Bob Dylan is that in 1961 Bob Dylan sold his soul to theSatan in order to become rich and famous. And who would know this better than A. J.Weberman, inventor of the words Dylanology and Garbology, the man who bedeviledDylan for years on end even going through his trash. Jann Wenner 
of Rolling Stone
 called AJ “the ultimate Dylan nut.” AJ is mentioned in 445 books mostly about BobDylan. He was the subject of an award winning film -
The Ballad of A. J. Weberman
,which was shown on the BBC in May 2011. Yet very few journalists are willing to sitdown and objectively evaluate his work as it shows that rather than being a liberal, BobDylan is a rightwing racist. Most of the media would rather preserve him as a leftwingicon however Dylan embedded racist subcontent in his poetry using certain dog whistleterminology. Take this example from his book
Tarantula
,“& into the
march
 
no
” the words “march” and “now” as in
Freedom Now 
 denotes the Civil Rights Movement. In
Ballad of a Thin Man 1966 
Dylandescribed a single-minded monstrous minority group as shouting the word[Freedom]
No
! “You see this one-eyed midget shouting the word
no
!”So we are into the Civil Rights Movement “where tab hunter” a famousactor, “leads with his thunderbird” leads the march driving a Thunderbirdautomobile. So what? Who cares? But if you look at the word “tab” as abill or check, such as one for a meal in a restaurant or the tab taxpayershave to pay for welfare and “hunter” as one who searches for or seekssomething” and add that to “thunderbird” a brand of cheap wine favored byBlacks, then Tab Hunter leading in his T-bird becomes
a lazy freeloading drunken nigger is leading the Civil Rights Movement
 Who is going to believe that this is a translation of Bob Dylan, icon of the Civil RightsMovement? Who is going to believe
Blowin’ In The Wind 
is a racist song, a variation of Billie Holiday’s
Strange Fruit 
, in which Dylan has blacks
blowing in the wind 
becausethey are hanging from the business end of a lynch rope. Who is going to believe thatwhen Dylan wrote “before they’re forever banned” by banned he meant:
South African
 Under the former system of apartheid, to deprive (a person suspected of illegal activity)of the right of free movement and association with others. Nobody’s gonna believe thisunless you actually take the time to read the book. If you do you will find racism againstAfrican-Americans as a recurrent theme throughout many of Dylan's poems, not justone. Other things you might consider absurd in the book is that Dylan compares Israelto Nazi Germany, Dylan is a Holocaust revisionist, Dylan has been HIV Positive for decades, Dylan was a dope addict (this last allegation has been verified when the BBCreleased a tape in which Dylan admitted he was addicted to heroin), that many of Dylan’s poems concern the Dylan Weberman mythology and more ideas about Dylan
