Why We Exist
We exist because our ancestors endured.
We exist because our history has been rewritten, our identity misclassified, and our communities poisoned spiritually, biologically, and legally.
We exist because silence is complicity.
And we choose to speak, stand, and build.
STGMNA is not just a nonprofit. It is a ministry, a movement, and a mandate.
We are reclaiming what was stolen.
We are restoring what was erased.
And we are rising, not through revision, but through revelation.
