Anahucalmecac is saddened to hear the crossing over of our beloved Auntie Julia Bogany. During our 2016-2018 Native American Youth to College Summer program, Anhuacalmecac students were blessed to be mentored and learn first hand from Tongva Elder in Residence Auntie Julia Bogany. We remember her drive, love, and individual commitment to the youth in the program and for her pride for her people the Gabrieleno Tongva. Most recently we were also honored to work with Auntie through the Indigenous Education Now Coalition.

In our hearts, and in spirit always, Nana Julia Bogany, ¡PRESENTE!✊🏽
