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: If the College of Heralds is devising arms for Kellogg College (letter, 13 July), I would like the Welsh connection to be included - namely, the red and green cockerel prominent on the Corn Flakes package. The story is that Dr John Harvey Kellogg was changing from selling Corn Flakes in sacks to boxes when he met the famous global itinerant Welsh harpist Nancy Richards. She connected Kellogg with the Welsh for cockerel (ceiliog), and he responded by putting the bird on his new boxes, in the red and green colours of the DDraig Goch (Red Dragon) of Wales.

Yours sincerely,
