How does the equal rights movement compare to the 13th amendment?

I'm certainly no expert, but I believe the equal-rights movement was the fight for women to be allowed to vote (which wasn't put into actuality until the 19th amendment), while the 13th amendment freed the slaves. (The 14th then declared them citizens, and the 15th gave them the right to vote.) Keep in mind, though, that only black men were granted citizenship and voting rights, since women were still excluded until the 19th amendment. I hope that helps!
