Chris Hayes is back with another installment of his show, All In, and on this particular episode, he tackles the issues that have been troubling America over the past days.

The show begins with an update on the recent police shootings of Alton Sterling in Baton Rouge and Philando Castile in Falcon Heights. Hayes delves into the issue of police brutality and the alarming trend of shootings of unarmed black men by law enforcement.

He brings on a panel of experts to discuss the matter, including Brittany Packnett, an educator and activist who has been involved in the Black Lives Matter movement; Paul Butler, former federal prosecutor and author of "Chokehold: Policing Black Men"; and Jamira Burley, a social justice advocate.

The panelists share their experiences and offer their perspectives on what needs to be done to address the systemic issue of police brutality, along with the role that both the media and political climate play in perpetuating the problem.

Hayes then moves on to discuss the recent tragedy in Dallas, where five police officers were killed during a peaceful protest. He holds a roundtable with law enforcement professionals and social activists, including Sheriff Valdez of Dallas County and Cynthia Nixon, a veteran and member of Veterans For Peace.

The panelists discuss the impact that the tragedy is having on the community in Dallas, as well as the strained relationship between law enforcement and the public. They talk about ways to bridge the gap between the two groups, and how the violence of the past week has affected their work as police officers and activists.

In addition to these topics, Hayes also covers the 2016 Republican National Convention, which was taking place during the week of the episode’s airing. He interviews political analysts and journalists, including political correspondent Joy Reid and Ann Coulter, a conservative commentator and author.

The conversation centers on the rise of Donald Trump and the effect that his candidacy is having on the Republican Party and the country as a whole. They discuss the policies and issues that Trump has championed, as well as the controversial statements he has made about communities of color, Muslims, and immigrants.

Hayes also talks with delegates at the convention, both those who support Trump and those who do not, getting their opinions on the nominees and the state of the party.

Throughout the show, Hayes’s tone remains measured, but concerned. He is not afraid to ask difficult questions, and he encourages his guests to be honest and thoughtful in their responses.

Overall, the episode is a powerful look at some of the most pressing issues facing America in 2016. From the ongoing problem of police brutality and shootings of black men, to the tragic events in Dallas, to the political upheaval of the Republican National Convention, Hayes skillfully navigates a range of complex and sensitive topics. His willingness to tackle difficult questions head-on makes All In a must-watch for anyone interested in seeing thoughtful, honest discussion of the issues that matter most.
