Read the scenario.Calvin is excited about the release of a new sneaker from his favorite shoe company. But then he reads a news story about how the company contributes money to a political candidate who is known for making inconsiderate comments.

Answer
A
participate in a workplace walkout
B
organize a boycott
C
write an article in the school paper
D
speak to friends and family

Explanation

Calvin wants to respond to the sneaker company’s support for a candidate whose comments he finds inconsiderate. A boycott means refusing to buy a company’s products to protest its actions, so organizing a boycott directly addresses the company’s conduct. The other choices express opinions or protest in different settings but do not specifically target the company as consumers.
