The monument was unveiled on August 26, 2016, as part of Women's Equality Day. It features depictions of Carrie Chapman Catt, Anne Dallas Dudley, Abby Crawford Milton, Juno Frankie Pierce, and Sue Shelton White, local activists for women's suffrage.[2][3][4]
The monument was dedicated in 2020, marking the 100th year anniversary of Tennessee being the final state needed to ratify the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, giving women the right to vote across the United States.[5][6]
