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.

The creative team at GoPro have gone small this time and it’s brilliant. Usually attaching a camera to daredevils jumping out of planes or wingsuiting through caves, this video is completely different.

They attach a camera to a miniature railroad set and the footage is amazing. Take a look below.

Welcome to Cripple Creek, a small train town in Pennsylvania; and it is one train you wouldn’t mind being stuck on. From the miniature people to the arty sequences, the footage breathes new life to a timeless toy.
