We can call two events independent if the outcome of one of the events doesn't impact the outcome of another event. 

For instance, we could throw 2 dice and consider the probability that both are 6's. So, we have thrown our dice. The outcome of the first die throw does not impact the probability of the second die throw. Regardless of what the first outcome was, the second die still has a 1/6 chance of rolling a 6.
