Read the vignette and answer the questions that follow. Reba went to the "Million Witch March" because doing witchcraft was a hobby for her. However, it was not a major part of her identity.

However, eventually the police won the conflict by detaining a number of participants. -Using Blumer's theory of circular reaction, what stage was Reba going through before she decided to help the witch being taken away by the police?
