Neither “women” nor “sex” are words that appear in the Constitution, revealing the limits of the Founding Fathers’ narrow understanding of women as equal citizens. The Constitution was written by and for white men with means, which reserved its principle of equal justice under law for the sole benefit of the authors and their privileged peers. This meant that women and people of color, among others, were openly regarded as less than full citizens and thus excluded from many legal protections because of their sex, race, and/or ethnicity.
Even without an explicit mention of sex in the Constitution, many of the legal protections that seek to promote women’s equality—and equality across the gender spectrum—are rooted in the Constitution’s equality principles and a modern understanding of equality that has surpassed outdated prejudices and stereotypes. Strong majorities of the U.S. Supreme Court over more than four decades have made clear that the 14th Amendment, which guarantees “equal protection of the laws,” encompasses protections against sex discrimination; this is evident first in the 1971 landmark ruling, Reed v. Reed, followed by other cases such as Frontiero v. Richardson, which was argued by now-Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.5 Despite this broad consensus, some conservative thinkers and theorists—such as Justice Antonin Scalia6—have rejected a reading of the 14th Amendment to include sex, arguing that such arguments are specious because they do not reflect the original intent of the nation’s founders. In the face of an increasingly conservative federal judiciary, arguments against sex discrimination rooted in the 14th Amendment are under threat, and existing protections are vulnerable to being rolled back.7

He had tried to expose the cruelty of slavery which doesn't spare anyone born in a black family. He points out the idea that a slave is a form of property owned by the master and he possesses full control over him.

Why is a different amount of energy required to melt different substances?
Answer:
Hello~
Llamalover here!
Foreign substances in a crystalline solid disrupt the repeating pattern of forces that hold the solid together. So a smaller amount of energy is required to melt the part of the solid surrounding the impurity. If less energy is required, then this explains the melting point depression (lowering) observed from impure solids.

Alfred: Your barn is a palace to a traveler in my condition. Thank you so much. Cudred: Sir, yours is a nobleman's voice. Are you posing as an earl?
Incomplete and unclear question. I assumed you want the correct dialogue that occurred in King Alfred retold by Richard Madsen.
Explanation:
The actual dialogue reads;
"Cudred: We must care for each other, Switha. Otherwise, what are we?
[Cudred gives Alfred an oaten cake, then leads him to the barn.]
Cudred: The barn is small and cold, but it will keep you safe.

earl in disguise?
Alfred: [pauses, then decides] Good sir. I am Alfred, thy
king. I am in hiding from the invading Danes. But soon I
shall rejoin my army and set our country free.
Cudred: [kneels] My King! Sire, let us return to the cottage."
