Thousands of students marching to protest a proposed education overhaul promoted by President Michelle Bachelet's administration cover their faces from tear gas, in Santiago de Chile, Chile, 04 August 2016. Chilean students took to the streets once again in the capital and other cities to denounce a proposed higher education overhaul that they say does not go far enough to correct injustices. President Michelle Bachelet pledged during her successful election campaign in 2013 that she would make college free and said the initial phase would aid 70 percent of the poorest students. But a sluggish economy led the government to retreat from that target and the implementation of the plan has been rocky. (Photo by Sebastian Silva/EPA)
