This week dozens of family members of victims of the Uvalde Texas school shooting showed up at the town's first school board meeting since a gunman killed 19 students and two teachers in May.
The atmosphere became tense and emotional as families confronted board members, demanding assurances that students and staff would be safe in the coming school year.
The school board meeting followed the release of surveillance footage from the day of the shooting and an investigative report released by the Texas House of Representatives.
The investigation found that a total of 376 local, state, and federal officers converged on the scene. But due to "systemic failures and egregiously poor decision making" on the part of the police, more than an hour passed before anyone confronted the gunman.
Many Americans feel that the police stand between order and chaos. Yet the massive failure by law enforcement in Uvalde may change how the public views police and how police view themselves.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Rise and Fall of the Boeing 747
Introduced in 1968, the Boeing 747 totally revolutionized commercial air transportation. It was more than twice the size of the next closest passenger plane, and it brought air travel to a much wider audience.
Not only did it help democratize air travel, but the plane’s unique features also added a new element of style and luxury to the jet age.
In addition to carrying passengers, it has also served as an important cargo aircraft, and it has even served as Air Force One.
Learn more about the Boeing 747 on the 747th episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
