Willie Christine King Farris (September 11, 1927 – June 29, 2023) was an American teacher and civil rights activist.

Like her mother and grandmother before her, King Farris attended Spelman College in Atlanta, where she earned a bachelor's degree in economics in 1948.

[1] King Farris then attended Columbia University in New York and received a master's degree in social foundations of education in 1950.

[1][4] King Farris was, for many years, vice chair and treasurer of the King Center for Nonviolent Social Change and was active for several years in the International Reading Association, and various church and civic organizations, including the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference.

In an interview with CNN, King Farris said she would not attend an April 2008 event marking the 40th anniversary of her brother's assassination, because the painful memories of her last visit to Memphis still haunted her.
