Activists: Gang Database Disproportionately Targets Young Men Of Color

Luis Pedrote-Salinas, seen at a July news conference, is suing the Chicago Police Department for including him in a gang database, an inaccurate designation that he thinks cost him the chance for protection under the DACA program.

Latino and immigrant groups in Chicago say that the electronic gang database is inaccurate, that there is no way for people to remove their names and that it's leading to some deportations.
