Best Answer

No. Since 1829 it was officially banned in Mexico. There are however, several cases of human trafficking, which include forced labor or sexual exploitation of women and children. This is one instance of organized crime violations that the Mexican government (sometimes with the help of the US Government) tries to eradicate.

How did Mexico feel about slavery in 1830?

Slavery is a nasty thing. Mexico's father of independence Miguel Hidalgo abolished it at the beginning of the struggle for Mexican independence (1810) but it was never officially put in any legal document until 1829; on 1830 it was approved by the Mexican congress and became a law throughout Mexico and its territories. This in turn, put Mexico at odds against Texian settlers, who in their majority, were slave owners.
