In this episode, we sit down with Queen J of Vibe BK to explore the differences between “old school” and “new school” social work approaches. Queen J shares her firsthand experiences navigating the shift in social work practices and discusses the challenges and opportunities for social workers today.
We also dive into topics that matter most to social workers serving communities of color, including the impact of evidence-based programs, the importance of leadership in social work and the transformative work of Vibe BK.
Discover how social workers are adapting to meet the needs of diverse communities while honoring the foundations laid by those who came before us.

Social workers of color face immense challenges—systemic racism, underfunding, and overwhelming caseloads. They work tirelessly to support others but often lack the support they need. That’s why we created the Queens of Social Work Podcast—a lifeline and safe space for social workers of color to vent, share, laugh, and find the resources they need to thrive.
The QOSW Daily Journal and our Royally You Interactive Journal for yourself will help you get all of your thoughts out and reflect on what’s next for you.
