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.

New school heads

London's reputation as the place to study architecture has been reinforced with the appointments of three lively heads of school. At the Royal College of Art, Nigel Coates has taken over architecture and interior design. On the other side of town, Peter Salter, an architect-artist, is to take over at East London University. At the Architectural Association in Bedford Square, Mohsen Mostafavi, from the Harvard Graduate School of Design, has been elected chairman by staff and students. The AA, a private school that is nearly 150 years old, connects all three appointments: Coates and Mostafavi have taught there in the past and Salter is currently teaching there.
