John Oliver discusses a week that saw the Republican National Convention, a horrific series of shootings in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and a strike in professional sports -- three stories that are really one story, about race in America.

(220,677 posts)One of his most timely (as he mentioned ) and best shows ever, IMO. He hit all the most relevant points, illustrated them clearly - as he does - and not without his signature humor (the RNC Roll Call! ).

(220,677 posts)But as he said in the opening, this really was about "last week," and think it was the hardest hitting and most immediately relevant show of the season.
