Civil disobedience is the active, professed refusal of a citizen to obey certain laws, demands, orders, or commands of a government, corporation, or other authority.
Well, Antigone was a brave person she wasn’t civil disobedience because she didn’t follow the rule of the king because she wanted to bury her brother Polyneices and who attempts to do that will be stoned. Due to the new king, his threats are real and Ismene wasn’t going to help her or get involved. One thing she told her was to not tell anyone because she will be stoned but sometimes you have to be careful where and when you speak around because anyone can hear anything. Unfortunately, one of the guards did and told the king if he didn’t find out who was the person that said it he will die instead of the person who did bury Polyneices.
