Use what you know from your reading and explain how the scopes trial was a reflection of the 1920s cultural clashes and evidence of a changing society

There were cultural clashes between secularists and traditionalists. Traditionalists got every sort of scientific explanation from the Bible while secularists knew the actual scientific explanation for evolution and whatnot. People eventually became more educated and the culture changed, with the majority of folks accepting science and its explanations.

Hope this helps! :)
