Boycotts are done by a group of people. They refuse to buy a certain product or use a specific service. Like people not using BP gas stations due to the oil spill in the gulf.

People use boycotts to show their anger at something that some company has done, like BP. They also do it to effect political change, like when that colored lady would not give up her seat on the bus and got kicked off. All the colored people stopped using the buses until the law was changed.
