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.Emmett Malloy's rockumentary follows Jack and Meg White, aka The White Stripes, on their 2007 tour of Canada, where they aim to play in every province.
"We wanted to play out of the way towns that don't usually get shows," says Jack, a noble intention you'd be even more inclined to admire if only the journey was involving. The Whites seem very agreeable types, and the audiences love them – but nothing really happens. This leaves only the music, a stew of grungy dirges and Led Zep knockoffs I find strictly insufferable.
