The Negro in American Life is a thought-provoking elective course designed to guide young people through the complex landscape of Christian race relationships during the early twentieth century. Written by Willis J. King, this work serves as both a historical primary source and a social curriculum, examining the status, contributions, and challenges faced by African Americans within the broader American social fabric.

Through a structured series of lessons, the book explores the intersection of faith and sociology, encouraging readers to apply Christian principles to the pressing social issues of the 1920s. It delves into the history of the African American experience, the conditions of the time, and the moral imperative for racial understanding and justice. As an artifact of the social gospel movement, The Negro in American Life offers invaluable insight into how religious institutions sought to address systemic inequality and foster a more equitable society through education and dialogue.
