जब 1834 में गुलामी वर्जित की गयी , अफ़्रो गुयानी लोगों ने वेतन के लिये कार्य करने से मना कर दिया . इस से कई बागान बंद हो गये हज़ारों मजदूर भारत , पुर्तगाल तथा चीन से खेतों में काम करने के लिये लाये गये .
When [[slavery]] was abolished in [[1834]], the Afro-Guyanese refused to work for wages, and many scattered into the bush. This forced many plantations to close or consolidate. Thousands of [[indentured servant|indentured laborers]] were brought to Guyana to replace the slaves on the [[sugarcane]] plantations, primarily from [[India]], but also from [[Portugal]] and [[China]].
 
This provided the basis for the racial tension that was encouraged and manipulated later, at the point where Guyana made its bid for independence, and to the present day. However, Guyanese culture is in many ways homogeneous, due to shared history, intermarriage, and other factors.
