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.South Africa, breaking from its cautious diplomacy on the troubled Great Lakes region, yesterday denounced a guerrilla campaign being waged by Hutu rebels and urged the international community to act. Condemning the slaughter of nine Roman Catholic nuns at a convent in Rwanda's north- west by Hutu rebels earlier this month, South Africa's Department of Foreign Affairs said in a statement the Tutsi-led Kigali government should be supported.
