C

an act of support to encourage others to vote and petition for change.

Explanation

A sit-in is a form of protest in which people occupy a place, often refusing to leave, to call attention to an issue and promote change. It is not a riot, a boycott of purchases, or an effort to encourage voting and petitioning. Therefore, the best description is “an act of protest that involves occupying a place to promote change.”
