> Thousands joined a student-led march in Rio de Janeiro on Wednesday to oppose the possibility of Flavio Bolsonaro becoming president. He topped the first round of Brazil’s election, but will face incumbent Lula da Silva in a runoff on October 25. Protesters voiced fears about far-right policies and Bolsonaro’s alignment with the United States.
