I think this can tie into the fact that, despite numerous attempts to divulge info on Blake's past, we still don't really know much about her. What we can definitely say are the following things:

- Kali & Ghira were once part of the White Fang, and as the former leader of the White Fang, Blake's conception to Ghira & Kali meant she was quite literally born into it, as she stated in V1. Where she was born is still a mystery, though Menagerie, Vale, and Mistral are probably the most viable options. (Menagerie because of Ghira likely having pre-established ties to be Chieftain & her calling it "home," Vale because of the current White Fang presence and her past appearances in the Black Trailer and the Blake Character Short, and Mistral because it seems to be the current headquarters for the White Fang, which meant that she might've been born there if it was still stationed there in the past and the Belladonnas actually rallied there.)

- As a kid, she took part in several White Fang rallies, though we don't know exactly how many or where these were held. Perhaps it just means she attended all that she could.

- She stayed with the White Fang even after her parents left it. Ghira became Chieftain of Menagerie at some point while Blake presumably rose in the ranks to be Adam's side by side [potential creeper/lover at the time as well] on (at the very least) the train mission and presumably others before it.

- She began to have doubts as it grew more and more violent, (Ilia likely factoring into this because Blake saw how she drank the Kool-Aid) and eventually cut ties in the Black Trailer, which took place the day after Cinder and crew visited Adam's camp for the first time.

- She made her way to Beacon and ended up on Team RWBY.

And the rest is current history, really. That actually tells us very little about her backstory, and seeing one of these rallies should probably occur to make things make more sense.
