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.

An exhibition of underwater photography by Brandi Irwin opens in New York next month.

The photographer is a former model and keen diver whose skill originated when she took her camera with her into the deep in order to explore the potential for under water fashion shoots.

But Irwin found the marine life she discovered during nighttime scuba trips so exciting, she changed tack and decided to focus on them rather than models.

She uses a technique which relies on ultraviolet light which attracts light sensitive sea creatures and makes them glow different colours.

The pictures will be on show at the New York Aquarium from 5 August.
