ona movement was born. the police raid on a gay bar run by the mafia, sparked days of rioting. gay people in the 1960s america suffered state sanctioned discrimination. they were denied jobs in the government and military and routinely branded as mentally ill. half a century later, the bar is still standing. mark cigar was there when it all happened. police barged in, just started pushing people around and anybody who looked like they were successful went up to them and said, ta ke successful went up to them and said, take out your wallet and they took to money. they didn't care because thatis to money. they didn't care because that is how you got to treat gay men and lesbian women in those days, you treated them like trash. it was then 93v treated them like trash. it was then gay people decided to fight back. treated them like trash. it was then gay people decided to fight backm was the first time the gay people said to the police, no. this is our neighbourhood and you will not tell us neighbourhood and you will not tell us to get off our streets. we picked up us to get off our streets. we picked up stones and we through them. what followed was days of riots and protests. just a year later,

america's first gay pride march took place. the whole of new york appears to be celebrating this year's special anniversary. across the city, rainbows are everywhere and events documenting lg bt city, rainbows are everywhere and events documenting lgbt rights are happening daily. being here for pride celebrations, it can be tough to imagine how difficult life was for older lgbt generations. many young people here are now growing up into more tolerant societies, but they don't really need spaces like this to hide away. i am proud of what happened there. were veterans of that struggle warned there is no room for complacency. with hate crime on the rise in many american cities, they say the lessons of the stonewall riots are as important as ever. ben hunt, bbc news, greenwich village. that is it from us, newsnight has started on bbc two but now it is time for the news where you are on bbc one.

hello and welcome to sports day, the headlines tonight. firing england into the semifinals of the world cup, they beat norway 3—0 tonight.

the india whitewash continues in the cricket world cup as they thrash west indies and now can't reach the semifinals. and carl admin fights back to win the battle of the britons and the place in the semifinals. lots to get through and not much time as we are a little shorter and sports day due to the football and thatis sports day due to the football and that is where we're going to start because england is through to the world cup finals, they beat the heat to knock out norway and reached the last four and a major tournament, let's get straight to northern france for our correspondent has been following the action. katie, this could not have gone much

better, could it? which it could've been. it was a great performance, great at this rare, great performance. that feeling before the scheme started was that england did not really hit top gear but they really did that here. they made norway who are a good side, look ordinary. in the data from the very first minute whenjill scott ordinary. in the data from the very first minute when jill scott scored. it came after a lovely move and then on the right, there was a this was, tha nkfully on the right, there was a this was, thankfully there had her back and putting them ahead afterjust two minutes. and soon, setting up, it was herfifth at setting up, it was her fifth at this tournament, and puts her in a joint lead and so she is firing on all cylinders, so much of their hopes rest on her shoulders and you can

see why, but the best is yet to come from england and the second half, she has been described by her manager as one of the best players in the world and this is why, picking her out at the edge of the box, what a finish, everyone in the cloud just looking at themselves and stop watching on tonight. he certainly enjoyed it, a fantastic finish from her and that kind of put the gloss on things for england. she also mentioned that she was busy at both ends, she had a goal line clea ra nce both ends, she had a goal line clearance but also had a hand and winning a penalty at the other end for england, a penalty that she u nfortu nately was for england, a penalty that she unfortunately was unable to convert but it did not really matter in the end for england that they did not get that final flourish. because a 3- 01 get that final flourish. because a 3— 01 was very convincing, they held from the defence and this was really a performance that was much more about england and how well they

played and it was meant to be the toughest test and they passed with flying colours. that was what i was going to say because norway was supposed to put up a strong test for them but great as england supported to see them playing so well. presumably this is not going to be the case because they're going to be either playing the usa or france and they're going to give them a real test, a re they're going to give them a real test, are they? yes, a real blockbuster semifinal for england. they face added the usa or france who will be playing tomorrow night. soa who will be playing tomorrow night. so a huge name is going to go out of this tournament and england will face the winner of the quarterfinal, but on this evidence, they will fear neither of those two teams. they played well against the usa and they beaten france in the past before and they will certainly be feeling very confident having won a semifinal for

the third successive time. it is also worth mentioning that this victory here tonight keeps their hopes alive of olympic qualifications. only the top european teams at this road couple qualify at the tokyo olympics, so there was added pressure on england to keep that hope in qualifying for the olympics. but all in all, a fantastic performance different england that will give them plenty of confidence going into that huge semifinal in the usa or france. thank you very much. india's clean sweep at the world cup continues, this time at the expense of west indies who they thrashed at old trafford by 125 runs — ending any slim hopes the windies had of qualifying for the semi—finals. patrick gearey reports. squint your eyes and it is the carnival that was around the country. they intend on making their own. we are going to beat everyone.

england is going to lose too. we are so england is going to lose too. we are so confident because of the team is so so confident because of the team is so good! in such an atmosphere, how difficult is it, west indies reviewed the second noise ended the endings without question. take two more wickets but not officially, one of the best batsman in the world and officially the one—day team in the world. no wonder they are confident. the last indian captain charged, missed and was somehow not dismissed. two chances but could grasp neither. india seems set to go big when suddenly, he was gone and within the noise. india only had 180, they needed more, on his second life and second wind attacked, going to 268. so the best team on the planet against a batman who called

themselves universe boss, it wasn't as exciting as it sounded. he removed as exciting as it sounded. he re m oved west as exciting as it sounded. he removed west indies half and then he came for their help. and they were powerless in the face of indian excellence, wondering repeatedly into carefully la id excellence, wondering repeatedly into carefully laid traps. it ended almost gently as easy a victory and you will see at this stage of the world cup, next up for india. england, the show moves on. and staying with cricket because after 27 seasons at somerset, the former england batsmen marcus trescothick has announced he's retiring at the end of this campaign. the 43 year old played 76 tests for england, scoring almost 6000 runs — at an average ofjust under 1m. trescothick was also part of the england side that memorably won the ashes in 2005. british number one kyle edmund is into the semi—finals of eastbourne — but he had to fightback from a set down to beat his in form compatriot dan evans, who dominated
