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.

These beautiful blueprints map out rivers, streets and buildings in cities from all corners of the globe.
Some hints: as the prints are created out of data, the more data available on a metropolis, the more detailed its blueprint will be. So New York’s print will be more intricate than, say, New Delhi’s. Also, keep an eye on the water – seaside cities like Barcelona and Nice should be easy to spot.
So indulge yourself in a little bit of armchair travelling and see if you can match the blueprints below to the cities they map.
