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.Munich has banned a big pro- Kurdish demonstration planned for today, fearing the rally could turn violent like protests last month in Germany in which Kurds fought police and set themselves on fire, Reuter reports from Munich. The Mayor, Christian Ude, said city authorities had 'reliable information' that Kurdish militants seeking an independent homeland in Turkey planned to use the rally to stage acts of violence. Kurdish and German organisers denied the charges of violence.
