Former slaves avoided work on plantations after emancipation, creating their own businesses and villages.

After slavery, planters needed new workers to replace the former slaves, turning to indentured workers from Asia, mostly.

Indentured workers often left their contracts early, unhappy with their conditions, and mistreatment.

Comparing Encomienda, slavery, and indentureship demonstrates a consistent pattern of labour exploitation throughout Caribbean history.

The abolition of slavery forced planters to find alternative labour sources.
