Careful how you use the term "de facto" discrimination. It is used legally to mean something different- used to distinguish what simply occurs in a population, from de jure discrimination.

For example, whites living in the suburbs, and blacks living in the cities would be considered de facto segregation- if one was looking at schools. No one mandated the segregation it just "happened" (now I think there is more than a little sophistry in that, but that's the way it is).
