Coolie, variously spelled Cooli, Cooly, Kuli, Quli, Koelie, is a historical term for manual labourers or slaves from Asia, particularly China and India, during the 19th century and early 20th century.

Chinese workers initially came to America in the mid-19th century to work in industries such as mining, agriculture, and construction, primarily to build the transcontinental railroad. They were recruited due to labor shortages and the demand for cheap, expendable labor.
