The rights of individuals were protected from state intrusion only by the state constitutions themselves. ... The Thirteenth Amendment prohibited slavery, and the Fifteenth Amendment protected the right to vote from discrimination based on race. The Fourteenth Amendment contained a number of important provisions.
