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.

Make of this what you will. It's the Rent A Lord page, the cyberspace home page for Lord Harpole, Britain's first Bangladeshi Lord of the Manor. His page offers you the chance to rent his services to "endorse your product in an imaginative marketing campaign".

www.learner.org/ exhibits/renaissance

An excellent page devoted to the history of the Renaissance. Starting with a Leonardo da Vinci picture, it offers a detailed examination of the time, taking in trade and exploration, printing and the importance of Florence to the period.

www.iloveny.com/ Default.htm

3-D panoramic views are in vogue and this site is one of the best, featuring a gallery of views of everything from the Brooklyn Bridge to the Financial District. It's excellent for those in love with far off places or Manhattan-philes who need a fix of their home town.
