Which sentence in this excerpt from susan b. anthony’s “on women’s right to vote” reveals the purpose of the speech?

a: i stand before you tonight under indictment for the alleged crime of having voted at the last presidential election, without having a lawful right to vote

c: it was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the union.

d: and it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government - the ballot.
