Let’s see... US outlawed slavery in 1865.

Mexico outlawed slavery in the 1970s.

Muslims still practice slavery and have no plans to outlaw it.

Yes...we are definitely the problem.

Actually,Mexico outlawed slavery in 1829. Mind you, it wasn’t strictly enforced in some of the northern provinces - in Texas, American settlers were allowed to keep their slaves so long as they were called “indentured servants”, but the general point still stands.
