The monument features a central, white female figure representing victory, surrounded by 32 life-sized figures depicting mythological figures, Confederate soldiers, and civilians. Among these figures, there are two Black Americans: an enslaved soldier following a white man to war, and a Black "Mammy" holding a white soldier's baby, a second white child clutching her skirt. The monument was designed by Confederate soldier Moses Jacob Ezekiel and commissioned by the Arlington Confederate Monument Association, an organization which formed out of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, who conceptualized and sponsored the memorial. This monument was partially dismantled and removed in December 2023, with plans to relocate it to New Market Battlefield Historical Park.

She is honoured with a drive and street sign named after her that runs through the University campus, on which one will find a stone marker outside the Baptist Memorial Building with an inscription in her honour.

Description An account of the resource The ‘Mothers of Gynecology’ in Montgomery, Alabama, was dedicated on September 24, 2021 and created by Michelle Browder. This monument depicts Anarcha, Betsey, and Lucy, three real enslaved women who were operated on against their will by the ‘father of gynaecology’ J. Marion Sims. The monument itself consists of three statues, one of each woman; the tallest is Anarcha, who was only 17 when Sims operated on her for complications from a traumatic childbirth. Browder sculpted the statues from discarded metal objects donated by the public – including several surgical and gynaecological instruments – ‘to symbolize how Black women have been treated and to demonstrate the beauty in the broken and discarded.’ The monument itself is full of symbolic meaning: Anarcha's womb is removed from her body, leaving a gaping hole in her abdomen containing a single red rose. Behind her, a metal cage representing her uterus is stuffed full of surgical instruments. Betsey also wears a crown made from a speculum, an instrument which Sims invented through his experiments on these enslaved women.
