Explanation: Susan B. Anthony was arrested for casting an illegal vote in the presidential election of 1872. During this time, women did not have the right to vote. She was fined at $100 dollars but refused to pay and gave a very important speech about women's right to vote. She assured the public that she had not committed a crime, but she had simply exercised her citizen's rights. She also mentioned that the National Constitution had given these rights to all U.S citizens. She even quoted the preamble of the Federal Constitution, mentioning the following: "We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. -- 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.
