Answer:

The correct answer here is C.

Explanation:

This excerpt comes from the famous speech made by Susan B. Anthony called On Woman's Right to Vote that she made after her indictment.  Here she calls on the preamble of the United States Constitution where it is said that the people, not white male citizens of the United States have the right to vote and hold office. So she is saying here that denying women the right to vote is a violation of the US Constitution.
