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.

The second album by the "lost" Detroit-Mexican spirit of late-1960s psychedelic folk-pop Sixto Rodriguez. Don't expect the rush of Cold Fact, but do expect to be engaged in a way that makes yer fink.

A bit. In a period stylee. Reality was recorded in London in 1971, starred guitarist Chris Spedding, and is fraught with ennui. Words like "sadly" and "beautiful" spring to mind, even as another beshriving string arrangement blows across the sound field like yesterday's news.

Pick of the album: 'Sandrevan Lullaby: Lifestyles': sad, lonely, poetic etc
