It certainly wasn't in the NT, where Jesus tells slaves to obey their masters, even the cruel ones.
First of all you know that the slavery the bible talking of is voluntary slavery or indentured servitude, which people would agree to if they were in debt. you could not enslave someone against their will.
Exodus
16 And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
