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.

Tim Hetherington and Sebastian Junger spent 15 months with a US army platoon in Afghanistan's most dangerous region to record this documentary.

The film, which won the 2010 Sundance Grand Jury Prize, offers an extraordinary record of the fighting, the fear and the fatalities in a way the Oscar-winning Hurt Locker could only dream of. An important historical document, it is also a testament to the harsh realities of life in a war zone.
