Carey Latimore attended at the Alamo. He looked frail while undergoing treatment for multiple myeloma, a form of cancer.

“He could barely walk without support. But then, when he got up there to speak, again, he was Carey. He was full of passion and optimism,” recalled Kate Rogers, executive director of the Alamo Trust.Now, for the first time, the Alamo staff plans to participate as a group in the annual MLK March on Jan. 16, walking in his memory.“Carey was a real friend,” Rogers said. “What if the world was populated with more people like that? We might be in a different place.

The Alamo project’s vision and guiding principles, in place since 2014, call for the inclusion of African American, Tejano, Mexican and Indigenous perspectives, among others, as part of the storytelling at the mission and battle site. One of the guiding principles is to “embrace the continuum of history to foster understanding and healing.”

“Even if he wanted certain outcomes, he had the gift of listening to everyone, making sure they knew they were heard, and leading everyone to a collaborative end,” she said. “That was his gift. And in a project like the Alamo, that spirit is critical.”
