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.

March 25's viral YouTube video is from Yourfavoritemartian, the cartoon music channel of YouTube celebrity reviewer Ray William Johnson.

Titled " THE STERE0TYPES SONG," the video has attracted a massive 2,006,429 views in two days.

The video, which contains humor of an adult nature and includes the refrain "I love you more than the Japanese love tentacle porn," celebrates stereotypes of nationalities around the world.

The video is meant lightheartedly and points fun at nearly every region or nationality, including Americans ("always eating burgers"), the Middle East ("rocking burkas while riding camels") and "the crooked ass teeth of an English dude."

Having been up for only two days, the video, according to YouTube statistics, is already the most viewed of March 25 in over 30 countries and globally is the top-rated video this month.

The video is available to view at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCgx8zM3woQ
