John Scopes Trial
The scopes trial began on july 10th, 1925 and was an american legal case in which high school subsitute John Scopes violated the Butler act by teaching evolution in school. In reality the trial was staged to attract publicity to the small town of Dalton, Tennesse. John Scopes didnt even know he taught evolution but still inciminated himself.
Even though the entire trial was staged it did still spark some contriversey. It triggered a century long debate on evolution vs creation and had people question traditional values. So thats how the John Scopes trial impacted history and the present.
