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.

The Museum of London Docklands is giving away 10 pairs of tickets to attend the exclusive evening launch party for its new exhibition, Soldiers and Suffragettes: The Photography of Christina Broom on Thursday 18 June. Join VIPs, curators, photographers and London creatives for music, cocktails and canapés, all in the beautiful waterside setting of a Grade I listed Georgian warehouse.
Enjoy the opportunity to see original prints and glass plate negatives – many never seen before on public display – in the first ever exhibition dedicated solely to Christina Broom, the UK’s first female press photographer. With creativity and a bold pioneering spirit she captured thousands of images of London at the start of the 20th century, from First World War soldiers to Suffragette processions, royal occasions to sporting events. This private view will be the first opportunity to visit the free exhibition before it opens to the public on 19 June.
