Situated in Occoquan Regional Park, Lorton, Virginia, the Turning Point Suffragist Memorial honors American suffragists. Positioned near the Occoquan Workhouse, where 168 suffragists were detained during the 1910s Silent Sentinels demonstrations, the memorial commemorates their resilience. Unveiled in May 2021, it serves as a testament to the fight for women's voting rights.
