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 second album from Brixton-reared Ebony Thomas, a singer, actress and former Winehouse classmate at Sylvia Young, is a beguiling blend of Indian chants, Afrobeat, and the darker end of post-punk.

In places it’s a perfect fusion of These New Puritans and Transglobal Underground. In others, it’s everything people say M.I.A. is. A charmingly off-kilter choral cover of “What Difference Does It Make” will be the track that catches most ears, but it’s a gateway to a whole lot more.
