If my favorite brother had to have his body deposited into a city dump for fighting, but my jerk brother who started the fight was buried as a national hero, I would probably confront my uncle about the truth about my brothers' deaths. I would try to explain how both should be buried equally, not one as a hero and one as a bird and maggot meal. Both died fighting for the same thing, so their deaths should be equal. My brothers should both be buried into the ground and paid with mine and my family's respects as well.
I don't think that I'd act without trying to explain or reason with my uncle about my brothers because that would be irresponsible. Once I've explained the situation to him and if he refuses to change their burials, then I would take action and properly bury my favorite brother. This is not because he's my favorite brother, but because to me, it is not morally acceptable to give one brother a more respectable burial and have the other die without a proper burial if both fought for the same things.
I would not want to get my sister involved unless she wants to get involved. I will not force her to go along with what I think is right because it's not her responsibility. If she were to confront me and say that she wanted to confront our uncle with me fora proper burial of both brothers, then I would let her, inferring that she take responsibility and is prepared to face any consequences. If I were to just drag her into this mess without her consent, that would be reckless. If I am going to get any help or support, the person has to be willing to help me and face any obstacles that come their way because of it.
