What is the name for school segregation that results from racially divided neighborhoods rather than state laws?
When segregation is ordered by law, it is called de jure segregation; when created by social or environmental circumstances it is called de facto segregation. De facto means "existing in fact," without being mandated by law.
Why is de facto segregation harder to change than de jure segregation?
De jure means "by law" and de facto means "as a matter of fact." So De jure segregation is segregation required by law (such as a school being segregated because there is a law requiring it), whereas de facto segregation is more just by chance (such as settlement patterns in a city leading to segregated schools).De facto segregation is segregation by fact or circumstance. Very often this is not a conscious choice. A good example is found in neighborhoods, frequently there is a white neighborhood or a black neighborhood, this concentration can lead to schools that are predominately one race. (Xe facto is latin for by fact.)"De facto" means the person who is serving in that position, or as "in fact"; whereas "de jure" means the person who is legally entitled to perform that function, or "by law," and has the right to perform a function or hold an office. It is important to note that hundreds of years ago, women did not have certain rights, and their husbands would perform the functions for them, although there are other latin terms for that.
What is defacto segregation?
"de facto" literally means "about or concerning fact", but in our usage, we take it as "in practice, but not required by law". The concept of "de facto" segregation means that even though there is no law requiring separation or segregation (of race or creed or whatever), the people choose to segregate themselves.
What is segregation de facto?
Racial segregation, especially in public schools, that happens "by fact" rather than by legal requirement. For example, often the concentration of African-Americans in certain neighborhoods produces neighborhood schools that are predominantly Black, or segregated in fact (de facto), although not by law (de jure). De facto segregation means that there is, in reality, segregation. Consider racial segregation of schools in the U.S. There was a time when some states had legally mandated segregation -- separate schools for Black and White students. This is no longer the case. However, some places still have de facto segregation where certain schools are virtually all White and others are virtually all Black. This could happen because the Blacks of a district live in the same area and use the same local school. And they might live in the same area because it is where they can afford the housing, or because whites in a formerly mixed neighborhood have moved away.

De jure segregation is a separation that is enforced by rule of law, such as pre-civil rights laws that mandated that persons of color sit in separate areas or use differing facilities. The landmark Supreme Court ruling, Brown v Board of Education highlighted the importance of the distinction between defacto segregation, which is segregation by personal preference, and de jure segregation.

What is the term for a 'rigid pattern of legal separation of the races'?
The term is "de jure segregation." As opposed to de facto segregation, which is racial separation imposed by poverty and inequality of opportunity and privilege. "De jure" means, "as a matter of law," while, "de facto" means "as a matter of fact." In other words, de jure segregation is deliberate segregation enforced by law. De facto segregation is imposed not by law, but by circumstance. For example, in today's cities, black people still tend to live in the bad neighborhoods, while white people live in nice neighborhoods. That's de facto segregation. There are no laws preventing blacks from moving into the nice neighborhoods. They are kept out of the white neighborhoods by virtue of being too poor to afford living in the white neighborhoods. Black children who grow up in these bad neighborhoods have a very hard time getting out, because the schools in these neighborhoods are bad. A bad education means you can't have a successful career, which again means you will always be too poor to afford moving to the white neighborhoods. Thus, to a significant extent, blacks and whites are still segregated, even though the days of segregated drinking fountains and bathrooms ended decades ago. That's de facto segregation.
What was the supreme courts role in legalizing segregation?
The Supreme Court did not play a direct role in legalizing segregation. In fact, the Court issued several significant rulings that challenged and overturned segregation laws. For example, in Brown v. Board of Education (1954), the Court declared "separate but equal" segregation in public schools unconstitutional. However, certain Supreme Court decisions, like Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), perpetuated the "separate but equal" doctrine and set the stage for segregation laws. It took many years and additional Supreme Court decisions to dismantle legalized segregation.
