Anti-federalists thought that the Constitution did not contain enough guarantees of the rights of individual citizens. They were instrumental in having the Bill of Rights added as the first ten amendments to the Constitution.

The people feared that from the ratification of the Constitution, there'd be a stronger central government which might take away basic rights of the people that had been guaranteed in state constitutions. The Bill of Rights ensured that the rights of all citizens are protected.
North Carolina initially did not ratify the Constitution because it believed that it did not adequately protect individual rights and liberties. They insisted on the inclusion of a Bill of Rights as a safeguard against potential government overreach. Once the Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution, North Carolina ratified it in 1789.
