Bio: Kenny Gilmore is the owner of the Howard Deli on Georgia Avenue.  This interview gives an interesting perspective of growing up in a close knit neighborhood, near Howard University and so many other resources.  He describes life as a very active youth, working in the deli (then owned by Frank Guerra) from the time he was 4-5 years old.  His social consciousness was formed his neighbors and teachers, and his racial and political consciousness was strongly influenced by Howard University.  He describes some of the major changes that took place in the community, and his vision for the future of Pleasant Plains.
