Young people are always told what not to do. But what should you do?
Did you know that most public libraries have a Nintendo Switch to use? That parks show free movies at night? That there's a map of pickup basketball games?
Nyc.gov/summer is a map of free and affordable things to do this summer that we made just for you.
Because public programs mean nothing if you don't know how to access them.

Might be the first home born Nigerian to be signed to a Latin record label. Sony Latin to be specific. Also.. had 2 number Latin records on billboard last year. Danny Ocean x Kapo, and Wisin x Kapo. All within months of each other.

A Nigerian that was attempting AI in 1971 was sent to the psychiatric hospital.
In the early 1970s, a Nigerian student, Mudashiru Ayeni, believed he had invented a battery-powered robot office assistant and asked to personally demonstrate it to the head of state, Yakubu Gowon. He was sent to a psychiatrist instead.
According to a 1971 feature story by TRUST magazine:
▶️Ayeni made eight visits to the hospital before the psychiatrist certified him to be of sound mind.
▶️The 20-year-old student then wrote to his school principal about the role young Africans were expected to play in the continent’s development.
▶️This time, he was banned from classes and forced to quit school entirely.
▶️Ayeni later reached out to Nigeria’s Federal Commissioner of Communications, Aminu Kano, who encouraged him and gave him a renewed sense of purpose.
▶️How his robot worked: at the press of a button, it told the caller whether the boss was busy, available, or away from the office.
▶️At the time the story was published, Ayeni said several businessmen had already expressed interest in his invention.
