Presentation transcript:

Following WW1 many rural communities saw a surge in fundamentalism This was an example of the urban/rural clash of cultures Fundamentalists launched a campaign throughout the country to ban the teaching of Darwin’s theory of evolution Tennessee’s anti-evolution law was called the Butler Law (1925)

A high school teacher, John Scopes, taught his students about Darwin’s theory of evolution The state of Tennessee brought a suit against John Scopes for violation of the Butler Law

William Jennings Bryan – attorney for the prosecution Clarence Darrow – attorney for the defense

Courthouse Dayton, TN

Scopes was found guilty and fined $100 The verdict upheld the Butler Law and was a victory for the conservative fundamentalists The verdict was seen as a victory for morality and a reaction against the “immoral” urban lifestyle Darrow appealed to the TN Supreme Court – verdict was overturned, but the Butler Law existed until 1967

1.Why is the hand labeled “Tennessee”? 2.In the opinion of the cartoonist, what is the verdict in Tennessee going to do to education?
