The US Constitution did not apply to all citizens when it was originally created. However, with the flexibility in which the founding fathers wrote this document so that it could be changed the rights and freedoms are applied to all US citizens.

Does each state in the United States of America have its own constitution or is there one constitution that governs all the states of the US?

Yes and Yes. The US Constitution applies to all the states. Each state has its own constitution that applies to that state. The state cannot contradict anything in the US Constitution, but they can add things that they feel are missing, or have more stringent requirements for certain things. And the state's constitution sets up and defines the government that will rule the state.
