Flat Earth: Moral galaxy
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.NOW THAT South Africa has become more of a black-on-black killing ground than a white-on-black one, the stars who set the moral tone of the world are looking for another cause. US failure to restore Jean-Bertrand Aristide to power, and its determination to repatriate fleeing boat people, have united a host of 'Celebs for Haiti'. Among the worthy are Robert Redford, Paul Newman, Bob Dylan, Dustin Hoffman, Harry Belafonte, Susan Sarandon, Danny Glover, Mike Nichols, Charles Dutton, Milos Foreman, Julia Roberts, Ruben Blades, Francis Ford Coppola, Anthony Hopkins, Spike Lee, Jack Lemmon, Robert De Niro and Gregory Peck. Celebrities offended by being overlooked are reported to be searching for a rival cause. Suggestions from readers welcome.
