What were the causes and effects of the scopes trial and racial tension

The cause of the Scopes Trial was disagreement about evolution. One side thought that evolution should be taught in schools, while another side said that it shouldn’t. It was also said that teaching of evolution was in violation of Tennessee’s Butler Act which stated that it was unlawful to teach evolution in any state-funded school.

It was purposely meant to also bring publicity, but in the end, John Scopes was fined $100 dollars which is equivalent to over $1000 dollars today. Many of the people and reporters went to the “big-shot” lawyers involved in the case so, the lawyers to morph the truth into anything they wished and the public hung on to their words. One thing it teaches is that we need to look at both sides because one side could be changed to what someone wants.
