El jazz se ha identificado tradicionalmente con instrumentistas y escritores varones. Por ello, este artículo se propone un doble objetivo: por un lado, subraya el importante papel de las mujeres como instrumentistas y directoras de bandas en la formación de una contracultura del jazz, en particular durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial; por otro, conecta las técnicas del bebop y sus significados culturales con as novelas Corregidora (1975) y Eva’s Man (1976), de Gayl Jones, y The Women of Brewster Place (1982) y Bailey’s Cafe (1992), de Gloria Naylor. El presente artículo presta especial atención al bebop quoting , técnica jazzística que tradicionalmente ha representado un lugar de significación masculina, pero que también permite a las instrumentistas y escritoras deconstruir y cuestionar estereo tipos asociados a la identidad/identidades de las mujeres negras
