Answer: Whether teachers could teach about the Darwinian theory of evolution.
Explanation:
The Scopes trial of 1925 was to prosecute high school science teacher John Scopes under a new law that had been passed in Tennessee that made teaching students about the Darwinian theory of evolution illegal.
The trial saw former presidential candidate William Jennings Bryan go up against Clarence Darrow as attorneys on opposing sides with both of them being the best orators of the time.
The trial ended with John Scopes being found guilty even though this was overturned.
