    The Jair Bolsonaro presidency has been a disaster for Brazil. Over 650,000 dead from COVID-19. Amazon deforestation. Rising fascism. Budget cuts. Fake news. Threats to democracy. Journalist Michael Fox sets the scene for Brazil’s critical October 2022 presidential elections by looking back on the last four years.

    This is Brazil on Fire, a new podcast about Brazil’s descent toward fascism under President Jair Bolsonaro. Over the next six episodes we’ll look at how Bolsonaro’s far-right government set the country ablaze, and how the United States helped him do it. Featuring host Latin America-based journalist Michael Fox.

    This podcast is produced in partnership between The Real News Network and NACLA.
