Antigone
I think that Antigone sided with Polyneices because she truly believed that he was just as good as her other brother,Eteocles. She knew it was unjust and disrespectful to leave Polyneices to decay on the street, and once she decided to bury him, she wasn't going to give up until she accomplished her goal. I think that she was very courageous in her decision to go against her uncle, King Creon.

Kathryn: good analysis of why Antigone stands behind her brother.
