Biology Nights at the Library is celebrating the 200th birthday of Charles Darwin and the 150th anniversary of the publication of On The Origin of Species by screening three documentaries on evolution. The second in the series is Monkey Trial.
More than 80 years after the Scopes Trial occurred in Dayton, Tennessee, the teaching of evolution in public schools continues to be a controversy. Join us on March 4th to see what happened in 1925 when one biology teacher was arrested for teaching science.
