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 Barbican's excellent "Inventing America" series presents Native Rites - a one-day festival of Native American culture embracing dance, drumming, spoken word and workshops. These afternoon events are free and in the evening a special concert is headlined by the Santee Sioux John Trudell, a prominent Native American rights activist whose lyrics set to a bluesy rock beat are a particular favourite of Bob Dylan. Lanky Dakotan flautist and dancer Robert Tree Cody, the multi-disciplined Gathering of Nations and storyteller Gayle Ross round off a bill that mixes contemporary performance with heritage.
Barbican, London EC2 (0171 638 8891) today from 1pm; concert at 7.30pm
