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.

Millennial Love is The Independent lifestyle desk’s fortnightly dating and relationships podcast.

This week Olivia speaks to model, actor and writer, Emily Ratajkowski.

The two discuss the relationship with your body, self-worth through the male gaze, and what it means to be a commodifiable asset – and the nuances that surround being exploited by that asset while capitalising on it.

Ratajkowski gives an honest and raw insight into the sexual assault she experienced throughout her life, personally and professionally.

They also discuss how publishing Ratajkowski’s collection of essays, My Body, was her way of opening the closet door, turning on the lights and staring the monster in the face.

You can listen to the episode below.
