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.

PICK OF THE WEEK

Fugees

The Fugees are the most likeable manifestation of hip hop going. They're from New Jersey, they rhyme and, as they say, they kick. You'll have heard their palimpsest on Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly"; hear the album The Score and get dark.

Wed 7.30pm, The Forum, London NW5 (0171-344 0044)

Bis

The very latest thing in cute, danceable, independent-minded pop. See them, then decide.

Sat, Cavern Club, Exeter; Mon, Dingwalls, London NW1; Wed, TJ's, Newport; Thur, Waterfront, Norwich

Ian MacNabb and the Afterlife

Ex-Icicle Work with a nice line in robust, songwriterly guitar rock.

Mon 8pm, Wedgwood Rooms, Portsmouth; Tue 8pm, Shepherd's Bush Empire, London W12
