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 Big Pink's insistence on keeping their amplifiers and ambition turned all the way up to 11 for the length of "Future This" makes for a decidedly dull listen and one that'll leave many fans hoping that the band will scale things back for album number three." consequenceofsound.net

"The tunes aren't as memorable or, in some cases, are arguably born out of consolidating that debut album success. Welcome to Difficult Second Album syndrome." bbc.co.uk/music

"To be commended for flaunting, gloriously, that most un-hipster of qualities: unselfconscious enthusiasm... Besides anything, the prospect of a chart-topping pop band with a bohemian background (well, they know people like that) is something to be glad for in January." thequietus.com
