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.IF YOU'RE near Glasgow today, you're in luck. The city is hosting 'On the Streets', a celebration of Glasgow's year-long reign as UK City of Architecture and Design, with everything from fashion shows and live music to street theatre, art and musical installations. Head for the Temple of Sound (pictured) an ever-changing panorama of sound powered by natural energy where you'll hear waves crashing and gulls crying as you walk through the sculptures. Or listen to the Aquaphon, a musical instrument driven entirely by water. A day of guaranteed, euphoric barminess.
Catwalk seats for the fashion show are pounds 15 & pounds 10 but all other events are free (tel: 0141 287 5511).
