According to her the White Fang started out as a group that used less violent tatics in their protests (going on strike, boycotting, etc), and that they only started to become violent when  they switched leaders.

Here's a question: What happened to the previous leader and why did he/she stepped down? Was it by choice (as if to say they gave up on their cause) or was it by force? Surely their must've been others before Blake that left the White Fang because of what the group has become. I think we need to see those kinds of Faunuas in order to get a better understanding on the White Fang. She said they turned violent 5 years before the start of the series, not 3. Link to when she said it.

And these are very good questions. Why did they end up changing leaders? According to Blake, their old leader stepped down. But why? Did they willingly step down? If not, was the knowledge that the old leader was forced to step down made public or private? It's possible that it was private, as Blake might have said "was forced to step down" if it was public.
