'Cause it is rebellion and it stops stuff that they don't like.
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.

That boycotts could be successful.
The boycotts that people living in the colonies established and took part in were very successful against the British during the American Revolution. The reason for the success of these boycotts was the amount of money that was at stake for the British government. When the colonists refused to buy the goods shipped in from Great Britain this had a wide effect on the entire economy of Great Britain.
