Overview

• At his second attempt on August 7, Alan Dershowitz was refused pierogies again by Good Pierogi co-owner Krem Miskevich, who cited his record defending sexual predators and his political views.
• Supporters of the nonbinary vendor chanted “Time to go!” and “Leave her alone!” as they defended the stand against Dershowitz’s persistence.
• Market manager Ethan Buchanan-Valenti intervened and asked Dershowitz to leave the West Tisbury Farmers Market when the confrontation escalated.
• Under Massachusetts law, political beliefs are not a protected class, and local market organizers are assessing potential rule changes to govern vendors’ rights to refuse service.
• On Real America’s Voice, Dershowitz accused the vendor’s backers of supporting Hamas and described Martha’s Vineyard as less tolerant than China or Russia.
