Civil disobedience is non violent resistance. It is taking a stand against a certain law or something and just not obeying it. It's as simple as that. A boycott is a form of civil disobedience. It's breaking the law, but it's breaking a law that may or may not be unjust according to that person.
I don't see how thinking is a form of civil disobedience, no one can take that away from you. Unless they put chips in your brain, I can't see how anyone can possibly manage that. UNLESS, that person thinking about civil disobedience does something to disobey the law and they do it in a violent way.
Speaking is definitely a form of civil disobedience, you can persuade anyone to what you want them to believe.
Someone might be undecided about segregation but after a minute or two of persuasion will partake in a boycott or sit-in just because of what someone told them.
