Busing was actually a policy put in place to promote desegregation by transporting students from one area to another in order to mix racial groups in schools. Segregation academies were privately-run schools established by white families in order to avoid desegregation. Tokenism was the practice of admitting a small number of Black students into formerly all-white schools in order to give the appearance of desegregation, but not actually changing the makeup of the school. White flight involved white families moving out of areas with a significant increase in Black population, which led to further segregation as schools became more racially homogenous.
