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.

Aziz Ansari's Netflix series Master of None proved that television comedy could triumph on both an aesthetic and emotional level.

Smart, nuanced, and beautiful to look at, Ansari's examination of love, race, and sexual politics proved the surprise hit of 2015, winning both critical and popular praise, alongside an Emmy for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series; now the comedian's returned for a second round.

Season 2 sees Dev (Ansari) on what appears to be an Italian-flavoured getaway, before his eventual return to New York forces him take on various challenges in both his personal and family life, alongside a new career opportunity and plenty more romantic intrigue.

There also looks to be plenty of big-name guest appearances, from Angela Bassett's hip mom to John Legend doing what John Legend does, i.e. rock out on a grand piano.

Master of None was created by Aziz Ansari and Alan Yang, who also serve as executive producers on the show.

Season 2 will premiere on Netflix on 12 May.
