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.A MEETING between Zapatista guerrillas from Mexico's troubled state of Chiapas and civilian representatives began behind schedule due to rain.
The Zapatistas were due to have emerged on Friday night from the jungle. But the inauguration of the meeting, the second of its type since November, was postponed until Saturday evening, "due to organisational problems and adverse climatic conditions", according to reports.
