Which action would be considered an act of civil disobedience?

Civil disobedience is the peaceful, deliberate breaking of a law or rule to protest injustice. In a sit-in at a segregated business, African Americans stayed in a place where segregation rules barred them, making it a direct, nonviolent protest. Rioting and looting involve violence or property damage or theft; a boycott is generally a refusal to buy goods rather than a deliberate violation of a law.
