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.

Watson caught Ferretti's attention when she launched a clothing line for Fair Trade brand People Tree in February 2010. The capsule collection, Love from Emma , featured 26 women's styles and 15 men's looks. In her role as creative advisor, Watson worked closely with People Tree CEO Safia Minney to design the lifestyle range aimed at young people ages 16 to 24.
"She [Ferretti] wrote to me and said, 'I saw what you did with People Tree and I think it's a great idea and will you do something with me?'" Watson said. The young starlet, who was the face of UK label Burberry, jumped at the chance to work with the renowned designer. "I will put it out there that I will work for anyone for free if they are prepared to make their clothing fair-trade organic," she says.
The collection, whose name has not yet been revealed, will make its debut in stores shortly after Christmas.
