What are good resources for beginners wanting to learn about natural language processing? Are there any good books, tutorials, courses, etc?

NLTK tutorials are interesting for the absolute basics in Python, e.g. http://www.nltk.org/book/ch01.html. The field has moved into advanced Bayesian and neural methods, but NLTK still has a use in pre-processing and thinking about how to work with text. The first thing to recognize, I think, is to realize how hard many of the language tasks are that people do trivially.
