Inherit the Wind (1960) ft. Gavin and Kevin McDowell - The monkey trial
The Goods welcomes back biblical scholar Gavin McDowell as well as Kevin McDowell, Gavin's father, a lawyer and educator. They discuss Inherit the Wind, the film telling a barely-fictionalized version of the 1925 Scopes trial against a teacher who taught evolution in classrooms. Join as they discuss both the historical and current context of the trial, their own religious practices, instances where truth was stranger than fiction, the definition and dangers of fundamentalism, and other notable courtroom dramas.
