After an army of hurricanes swept the southern coast of the United States, The Caribbean Islands and the eastern coast of Mexico, not many diverse news stories were trending on the internet. During the hurricanes, some downtime for checking alternate news headlines left us with some wild stories from girls swimming away from abusers to kidnapper wedding guests. These stories aren’t as hopeful as we would like but here’s to hoping they may get better as the year goes on.
