'Creeping segregation' cited in new report on Columbia housing

Now, we turn our attention to Maryland's second largest city, Columbia, and a new report about the changing racial climate in the Howard County community that was planned as an inclusive and diverse place 55 years ago. Tom is joined by the co-authors of a report from the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (NCRC) about Columbia, entitled “Creeping Segregation and Lack of Affordable Housing Threatens a Legacy of Black/White Integration.” Dr. Bruce Mitchell, NCRC's Senior Research Analyst, and Dedrick Asante-Muhammad, NCRC's Chief of Organizing, Policy and Equity, co-wrote the study, and they join us now on Zoom.Email us at [email protected], tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.
