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.

Asian theatre, however, has never quite achieved unstoppable momentum. Until now. This autumn sees an explosion of work headed by Tamasha's staged Bollywood movie Fourteen Songs, Two Weddings and a Funeral, and a new show from Tara Arts (right). Exodus is the epic story of up to 100,000 people, who, in the first three months of 1968, formed one of the largest migrations in the shortest period this century. Their arrival from Kenya caused Enoch Powell to let rip with his notorious "Rivers of Blood" speech. One of those involved was the 14-year-old Jatinder Verma, who has directed this epic show examining the big picture from the perspective of three interwoven stories.
