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.

Athletics

Linford Christie may extend his Grand Prix career to run in a "dream team" relay with the world's fastest sprinters in Berlin on Friday. A special 4x100 metres relay in honour of Jesse Owens, who won four Berlin Olympic gold medals 60 years ago, will be led by Donovan Bailey of Canada and Frankie Fredericks of Namibia. Carl Lewis was also going to be part of the relay but had to withdraw because of a leg injury. A replacement has yet to be announced.
