Civil disobedience is the refusal to comply with certain laws considered unjust, as a peaceful form of political protest.

Examples of Civil Disobedience are:

Dorothy Day, co-founder of the Catholic Worker Movement, Philip Berrigan, a one-time Catholic priest, and his brother Daniel Berrigan, a Jesuit priest, who were arrested dozens of times in acts of civil disobedience in antiwar protests. This is a religious example.The Uprising of 1953 was disobedience against the government in East Germany. The protests were put down by the state. Civil resistance was a significant factor behind the dissolution of communist governments and the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
