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.

'THIS is so sensual, so uncomplicated . . . beautiful]': thus Clare Short MP on Desert Island Discs this week, announcing her late discovery of classical music. The composer who converted her was Arnold Schoenberg, no less, thanks to a Birmingham performance of his monumental choral epic Gurrelieder. It was her if-you- could-have-only-one choice, as well. Who will be the first castaways to hang on to their Boulez and Stockhausen?
