Diversity in Howard County fulfills the Rouse dream for Columbia

    

     I remember a time when we moved to Columbia in the 1970's and there were two Howard Counties.  One was Columbia with a new urban population that was diverse and politically liberal and one was rural, white and politically conservative.  There were two Democrat clubs- the Ellicott City Democrat Club was conservative and the Columbia Democrat Club was liberal.  A recent article in the Baltimore Sun has shown that what was once true in Columbia is now true in Howard County.  The diversity that once only existed in Columbia is now reflective of most of Howard County.
