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.SORROW at the death of Frank Wright (obituary by Richard Jay, 13 February) is shared by many throughout Northern Ireland, writes Fiona Stephen.
It is with particular affection and gratitude that his work will be remembered by all those in the integrated education movement. His monograph Integrated Education and New Beginnings in Northern Ireland (1990) is one of the landmark studies on the historical evolution and political significance of integrated education in Ireland. Based upon a profound knowledge of Irish history, but informed by a deep empathy for the two communities who inhabit the north of Ireland in particular, it is a reference work for all those who believe that the future of the province must be built on reconciliation and mutual understanding rather than violence and denial.
