Still, culture wars do end. In the 1920s, immigration, Darwinism, and the Ku Klux Klan dominated political debate, but in the 1930s, they receded as Washington turned its attention to the Depression and the specter of war.While it's true that Klan membership declined in the 1930s, would anyone seriously argue race went away as a culture war issue after the Great Depression?
And we're still debating immigration and Darwinism.
Geez.
