Answer:

Cakewalk dance.

Explanation:

The cakewalk dance was a form of recreational dance that the slaves in the plantation farms used to perform as a sort of entertainment and parody of their white masters. The group of performers, including men and women, would dress up in their finest dresses, and imitate the actions and mannerisms of their white owners, the pretentious smiles and attitudes. This parodying of the white 'superior' people gave a new form of expression to the  slaves, who are left with no better means of protesting or even expressing their dissent. The dance is also incorporated with some personal twists and patterns of dance, some African dance moves, thus making it a direct product of the slaves.
