In "Speech After Being Convicted of Voting," Susan B. Anthony included excerpts from the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution to support her argument because She feels that those documents are examples of the way the government oppresses women.

Explanation:

Susan B. Anthony was put under trial under the US government for actively participating to vote in the elections. She was an active leader of the woman suffrage movement. She gave the famous speech Is It a Crime for a Citizen of the United States to Vote? In which she put her arguments related to the discrimination which the women were facing because of men. She argues that the law has been made by the men and the pronouns used in the written laws too constitute of the masculine. Women, on the other hand, have never been included while framing these laws. But if a woman is found guilty, she becomes liable to follow the laws made by the men. She also talks about her reason for being put in trial. Her crime as per the law of the government was that she wanted to exercise the right to vote which is a woman she was prohibited from. She tells about the Hippocratic nature of the men and the judicial system. Her warrant included the masculine pronouns but the clerk of court made some changes in it. He altered the masculine pronouns to that of the feminine. Her final argument was that if women were liable to get punished as men under the laws made by men, then equal rights should be imparted to women.
