The Great Tennessee Monkey Trial Audiobook (Free)

The Scopes Trial, over the right to teach evolution in public schools, reaffirmed the need for intellectual freedom as codified in the Bill of Rights. The trial, within a small-town Tennessee courtroom in 1925, established the stage for ongoing debates within the separation of Cathedral and State within a democratic culture – debates that continue steadily to this day.
