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 gallery has gathered 50 "invisible" works by leading figures such as Andy Warhol, Yves Klein and Yoko Ono for its first show of art you cannot actually see.

Exhibits at London's Hayward Gallery include an empty plinth that Warhol once stood on and a canvas of invisible ink. It says the £8-a-head exhibition shows art is about "firing the imagination", rather than simply viewing objects.
