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

ANTHONY QUINN, reviewing Mark Cocker's book Loneliness and Time, describes travel writing as a 'soft touch for any cultural dilettante or voyeur who can hold a pen' (Review, 6 December) and 'blasts off' at travel writers including Lawrence Durrell and Patrick Leigh Fermor. These are not travel writers but writers who travel and have used their experience of journeying and living abroad as means towards ends, not ends in themselves.
