US pledges $300 million in migration support at Americas Summit
The Summit of the Americas started with discord but ended the week on a high note. The United States unveiled a long list of measures to confront the migration crisis in the Western Hemisphere and pledged $300 million to tackle the problems. And the Polish government is being accused of setting up a "pregnancy register" to document all the pregnancies in the country.

Plus, as the Golden State Warriors and Boston Celtics fight for basketball's biggest bragging rights, Celtics’ head coach Ime Udoka, from Nigeria, has attracted lots of Nigerian fans in Boston to cheer them on.
