Manuscript Draft / Evidentiary Document (House Oversight Committee) • 2.73 MB
View

This document appears to be a page from a manuscript or legal filing (stamped by House Oversight) written in the first person, likely by Alan Dershowitz given the context. It details the narrator's defense of actress Vanessa Redgrave's right to perform with the Boston Symphony Orchestra in 1982 despite her controversial anti-Zionist views and affiliation with the Revolutionary Workers Party. The text outlines the controversy, the cancellation of the performance, and Redgrave's subsequent $5 million lawsuit for breach of contract.
