The correct answer is Engaging in a sit in, in which African Americans stay at segregated businesses.

Civil disobedience refers to an action taken by individuals that does not involve the destruction of any property. With this in mind, you can see that statement 1 and 3 are wrong. Based on this definition you can also see that the last statement is wrong. Boycotting is not civil disobedience because a boycott involves a refusal to buy a product or participate in a certain action. This leaves only the second statement as the correct answer.
