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.

First Call

NICK DARKE'S new play, The Riot, receives its world premiere next year in a co-production with the Royal National Theatre and Kneehigh Theatre of Cornwall. Set at the beginning of the 20th century, passions boil over when the question of working on the Sabbath is thrashed out between fishermen. Mike Shepherd directs.

Royal National Theatre, Cottlesloe, South Bank, London SE1 (0171-452 3000) opens 11 Feb
