On the 80th anniversary of VE Day, the King emphasized the vital role of unity among nations, races, and religions in overcoming tyranny. He reflected on the collective achievements of wartime allies against existential threats to humanity. This message was echoed in the context of The Independent's commitment to providing accessible journalism that covers critical issues like reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech. By rejecting paywalls, they aim to ensure vital narratives reach all Americans, stressing the importance of support in funding independent journalism during pivotal moments in history.
The Allied victory being celebrated then, as now, was a result of unity between nations, races, religions and ideologies, fighting back against an existential threat to humanity.
Their collective endeavour remains a powerful reminder of what can be achieved when countries stand together in the face of tyranny.
In remembering the past, we must also look to the future. As the number of those who lived through the Second World War dwindles, it is imperative we keep the narratives alive.
Quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it, ensuring important stories are disseminated without paywalls.
