What do you want to know? What is your question?

If this is a true or false question, then the answer is true.

It is true that in the song "The Death of Emmett Till," Bob Dylan warns the reader about the harmful effects of racism and the dangers of being indifferent toward racism.

This is a song that directly refers to the story of an African American man named Emmet Till. The lyrics of the song tell how white people dragged Emmet to a barn and made him suffer until he was dead. The story tells that the assassins went to trial but were pardoned.

Bob Dylan ends the song by saying that this is a story to remind people of not allowing those things to happen in the country.
