By analyzing Brutus and Antony’s speeches‚ it is clearly shown that Antony persuaded the crowd better than Brutus had.

Brutus uses his "nobleness" to persuade the crowd into thinking he has merely done this for the people of Rome.

While reading "The Inequality Hype"‚ there was a particular paragraph that really resonated with me. This paragraph talked about how Karl Marx essentially expressed that "all human labor has the same value". The article then goes on to explain that Marx thought this because "we are all equal in what he deems people’s most important characteristic—their humanity".
