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.

Those marching on the annual London Trans Pride march on Saturday 27th July, share their thoughts about what it means to be transgender in the UK in 2024.

Previous years have seen organisers asking people taking part by wearing flowers ”to honour the long legacy of transgender, non-binary, gender non-conforming and intersex people who came before us”.

Beginning in 2019, the event sought to honour the memory of trans lives taken while ‘upholding the next generation of trans revolutionaries and support crucial trans rights’.
