Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Vintage prints of the stars of Hollywood's 'Golden Age' will be on display at the National Portrait Gallery from 7 July.

A celebration of the career-defining images of Hollywood's stars, the Glamour of the Gods: Hollywood Portraits exhibition captivates the glitz and glamour of the 1920s through to the 1960s.

Featuring more than 70 photographs of stars such as Audrey Hepburn, James Dean and Marilyn Monroe, most of which are on display for the first time, the exhibition celebrates the portraits that transformed actors and actresses into international style icons.

The exhibition, organised by the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, will be on display at the National Portrait Gallery, London, until 23 October.
