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.A video of two men dancing to Ed Sheeran’s hit single Shape of You with an added Bhangra twist has been shared widely across social media.
The video, which is taking the internet by storm, features two dancers from Canada’s Maritime Bhangra Group and has been shared more than 4,600 times on social media.
The duo are hoping to raise awareness of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and have asked viewers to donate to the MS Society of Canada.
"We are group of youngsters from Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada who have a mission of dancing to help people by raising awareness and money and act as a medium to start dialogue on issues important to our international community," Hasmeet Singh Chandok, one of the founders of the group, told The Independent.
"We don't do anything special, its the people who make it special," he added.
The comments on the video have been very supportive and one user wrote: "It's great to see you have come through.
"Multiple sclerosis needs more exposure so that we can find a cure for this horrible disease from a MS Warrior!"
It is not the first time members of the group have won over the internet with their dance moves.
Last year they uploaded a video shovelling snow while dancing to Sia’s song, Cheap Thrills.
It was watched 2 million times and received more than 28,600 shares.
The video was uploaded to raise awareness for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
