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.

Suspected neo-Nazi skinheads carved a swastika on the face of a 17-year-old girl in a wheelchair after she refused to shout fascist slogans, Reuter reports from Berlin. A police spokesman said the skinheads, aged between 15 and 20, waited for the girl to come out of a public lavatory for the handicapped in the eastern town of Halle on Monday. The three attacked her after she refused to shout fascist slogans and cut a swastika into her left cheek.
