Reese studies the ways Black people produce and navigate spaces and places in the context of anti-Blackness. “While I am interested in and committed to documenting the ways anti-Blackness constrains Black life, I am constantly brought back to the question, what and who survives? This question and these themes show up over and over again in my work. I marvel at the ways we make lives, even when constantly surveilled and threatened by state and corporate violence and neglect.”
