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.Sir: What a joy it was to come to the end of the Independent on this dull Monday, 4 March. After the daily dose of deaths, treachery, secret deals, car bombings, rapists, jailings, trapped victims, etc, etc, I stumbled on that day-saving article.
The "wild rice" Indians of Wisconsin are doing something right and have been doing so for the past 100 years.
They have shown Mr Paleface that logging can be profitable. Yes, millions of bucks per annum, without destroying the environment. It would appear that they will be able to continue in the same vein for the next 100 years. They key word was "sustainable".
At last, some journalistic proof that it is still just about politically correct to be human.
