State Attorney General Bruton and Deputy State Attorney General Moody responded with an unequivocal message:  \nThe members of the office of the Attorney General of North Carolina did not promote or urge the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 but the Congress did pass the Act. No county or city board of education in this state is required in mandatory fashion to accept any Federal funds to promote school programs but if  \nthe funds are accepted then the conditions must be complied with and administered in good faith and this means total and complete desegregation of all schools in the county or city school system. If the funds are not accepted then such manner of operation affords no protection because the Attorney General of the United States under Title IV of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 can institute legal proceedings to force the desegregation of any school or school system, and this is true whether the school unit receives Federal funds or not. In short, the whole Act contemplates total and complete desegregation of public schools whether Federal funds are received or not.  \nNeither the State Board of Education northe county and city boards of education asked for this situation, but they must live with it and they will have to work with such clay as itis handed to them. Noform of token compliance, clever schemes, chicanery or subtle or sophisticatedplans of avoidance—no matter how crafty or cunning—will in the endprevail. No devices orplans whether ingenious or ingenuous will constitute any legal defense to the mandatesofthis Federal statute [emphasis added]. (Bruton & Moody, 1965, p. 10)  \nDespite the strong advisement of the state Attorney General’s office, North Carolina schools would engage one final “sophisticated plan of avoidance” to stall the “total and complete desegregation of all schools”(Bruton & Moody, 1965, p. 10). In 1966, North Carolina schools would begin implementing the Freedom of Choice Plan, whereby local school boards “opened doors to previously all-white public schools to black children and black schools to white children”(Crow, Escott, & Hatley, 2002, p. 171). When reassignment was requested by a parent, the boards held the legitimate authority to deny each request. In essence, the Plan fed the national mystique boasting North Carolina as a democratic model for desegregated Southern schooling, while its enactment was actually far from the democratic ideal (Hughes, 2005a). Freedom of Choice was operative for three years and during that period of desegregated schooling,“85% of the state’s black schoolchildren continued to attend all-black schools, and not a single white child elected to attend such afacility”(p. 172). Thus, as Crow, Escott, and Hatley (2002) suggest, the burden of implementing school desegregation fell to Black families. By the 1968-1969 school term the Freedom of Choice Plan was ruled unconstitutional and an ineffective means toward ending school segregation by a federal court in Boomer v. Beaufort County Board of Education. The 1970 school year would launch mandatory school desegregation throughout the state, approximately sixteen years after the initial Brown decision.  \nUnfortunately, this oppressive period of educational and social history remains largely in the forms of oral history and state archival documents.
