In this speech, Anthony argues that women should have the right to vote. Which sentence from the passage does Anthony use to summarize her argument?

A: In the adoption of the Fourteenth amendment settled that question forever in its first sentence

B: There was always a conflict of opinion, prior to the war, as to whether they were synonymous terms

C: The only question left to be settled is: Are woman persons?

D: Though the words persons, people, inhabitants, electors, citizens, are all used indiscriminately in the national and state constitutions

Susan B. Anthony was a suffragist who was arrested and convicted by the United States supreme court for casting her vote during the elections in 1872. The cause of the arrest was that only men were allowed to vote, and thus Susan, who was a woman, had no right to vote.

In her "Speech After Being Convicted of Voting", she implores why women were denied the same rights as men. According to the Fourteenth Amendment to the U. S. Constitution, every citizen irrespective of gender have the same rights. So she argued why she, even though a woman, was denied her right. Arguing for the same voting rights as that of the men, Anthony posed the question "Are Women Persons?". This perfectly summarizes her argument of demanding for the equality of women to their male counterparts.
