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.

A documentary on Japanese tennis player Naomi Osaka and a series tracking the high school life of Indian-American student Devi Vishwakumar are among the Asian shows coming to Netflix in July.

The streaming service has been adding plenty of shows from a wide range of countries like India, South Korea, and Japan to its already existing assorted list of programmes.

Starting off with Taapsee Pannu’s psychological thriller Haseen Dillruba - a Bollywood film about a widow who is implicated in her husband’s murder. The film was released on Netflix on 2 July.

Next up is Japanese professional tennis player Naomi Osaka’s three-part mini-series Naomi Osaka - the momentous docu-series is being released on 16 July, which covers the 23-year-old player’s triumphs and tribulations in defending the world champion title.

Another Indian original series to watch out for is the six-episode mini series Feels Like Ishq - a young adult rom-com show - releasing on 23 July. It is an anthology led by Radhika Madan, Tanya Maniktala, Zayn Marie Khan, and Neeraj Madhav.

For more Indian passage, it is worth looking at the return of Indian-American high schooler Devi Vishwakumar in Never Have I Ever season 2, available from 15 July on Netflix globally.
