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 controversial film Crash, which has been described as depraved and wicked, could be screened in Britain by the end of next month.

Censors say that the film, which depicts sado-masochists aroused by car accidents and mutilation, should be cleared for release after certain cuts.

Westminster City Council, which imposed a ban on the screening of Crash in the West End of London, will reconsider after the British Board of Film Classification makes its decision.
