Lulu Anderson v The Brown Investment Company was an Alberta legal case filed in 1922.
Lulu Anderson (born 1885 or 1886 in Atlantic City) was a black woman who sued a theatre in Edmonton.
[1] That same year, Anderson had purchased a ticket for The Lion and the Mouse but was refused entry due to her race.
It was reported on by the Edmonton Journal as "a court action of considerable importance to the colored residents of the city".
She lost the case, with the judge ruling that she could be refused entry as long as her ticket was refunded.
