TypeError: unhashable type when publishing using rabbitmq

I am trying to pass a python dictionary to a rabbitmq queue via pika, this is probably a python problem and not rabbitmq itself. I am getting an error as stated above and here is my code:

def PingAddScan(deviceID, ipAddress, deviceHistory, item, date, apiURL, browserConId):
    if PingDevice(deviceID, ipAddress):
        BasicScan(ipAddress, deviceID, item, apiURL)
        deviceHistory[deviceID] = date

        # After the basic scan we are going to need to push a message back to the user to say
        # that the pathfinder has successfully found the device, and it should prompt the user
        # what he wants to scan
        print browserConId + " : " + deviceID
        chaelOutbound.queue_declare(queue='outboundMessaging', durable=True)
        message = {"browserCoectionID": browserConId, "data": "FOUND", "deviceID": deviceID}
        print str(message)
        chaelOutbound.basic_publish(exchange='messaging',
                              routing_key='outbound',
                              body=message)

and here is the full stack trace:
