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 little girl wore her own version of Hillary Clinton’s signature pantsuit to meet her role model at a book signing.

Ms Clinton appeared at an event showcasing It Takes A Village, the picture book adaptation of her 2006 book of the same name.

In a photo, the former US Secretary of State is seen smiling at her mini-me, named Grace, while signing picture books.

Ms Clinton has also been busy promoting her other recent book release, What Happened, which details her experiences as the Democratic Party's nominee for president in the 2016 election.

It is the highest selling nonfiction release in five years.

Ms Clinton shared the photo of her and Grace on Twitter, writing “Great to be back in Brooklyn sharing #ItTakesAVillage with readers of all ages!”

Grace is also pictured outside the event holding a blue heart sign that says “Keep Going” while wearing her pantsuit and pearls.

Many people on social media loved the photos and called Grace “adorable”.
