Must watch: Aquarium bursts in shopping centre in Shanghai
Your support helps us to tell the story
My recent work focusing on Latino voters in Arizona has shown me how crucial independent journalism is in giving voice to underrepresented communities.
Your support is what allows us to tell these stories, bringing attention to the issues that are often overlooked. Without your contributions, these voices might not be heard.
Every dollar you give helps us continue to shine a light on these critical issues in the run up to the election and beyond

The appeal of the aquarium means you see the wonders of the ocean, without any of the danger. Or at least in most cases...
Onlookers at the Orient shopping centre in Shanghai were extremely unlucky when a glass wall cracked, pouring out the contents of the aquarium.
Three lemon sharks, several turtles and small fish were sadly killed in the incident, and sixteen people are said to be injured.
In 2010, a 2.6m-gallon tank - one of the of the largest in the world - also cracked in Dubai.
A true horror moment for selachaphobiacs and ichthyophobiacs.
