New equalities boss warns against demonisation' of migrants in UK
"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."
"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."
"I think it's really important that we have honesty in the way that we talk about human rights, and that we also have a recognition that the demonisation of migrants, the creating this idea that migration causes huge risks for the country can make the lives not just of migrants to the UK, but of ethnic minority UK citizens, very, very difficult."
The Independent sends reporters to cover issues from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech, investigating topics like Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and producing documentaries such as 'The A Word'. The outlet remains free of paywalls and relies on donations to fund on-the-ground journalism that speaks to multiple sides of a story. Nearly 250 refugee charities urged a move away from demonising language after anti-migrant violence last August, when rioters stormed hotels housing asylum seekers. Dr Mary-Ann Stephenson warned that portraying migration as a national risk worsens conditions for migrants and ethnic-minority UK citizens and cautioned against leaving the ECHR.
