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.

First Call

ANKOKO BUTOH is, perhaps, Japan's most striking contribution to 20th-century dance. It is a style which began in the 1960s as an attempt to create a new theatrical language which was uniquely Japanese. In January, The Shankai Juku Company will perform Shijima. In this minimalist work, a white mural is decorated with human shapes which come to life.

Sadler's Wells, Rosebery Avenue, London EC1 (0171-863 8000) opens 18 Jan
