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 Levellers celebrated their tenth anniversary in October by releasing One Way of Life - The Best of The Levellers album containing nine Top-20 singles, and embarked on a 30-date UK tour. It comes to a close tonight at the Brixton Academy with a show full of all their best songs. By ploughing their own folk-punk path, The Levellers (right) have often been wrongly dismissed as crusty hippies, but their fanbase is far wider than that. A typical Levellers gig is a night packed with honest entertainment and a surprising number of clubland-influenced twists. Forget the preconceptions and enforced stereotypes, this is simply music to dance and drink (lots) to.

Brixton Academy, London SW9 (0171-771 2000) tonight
