CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- During Monday night's city council meeting, protesters packed into the city's government center and asked Charlotte Mayor Jennifer Roberts and CMPD Chief Kerr Putney to resign.

More than 50 people took to the podium, even a few children, to express their concern of the handling of the fatal police shooting of Keith Lamont Scott and subsequent protests.

A little girl addressed the magnitude of the issue during an emotionally charged plea. "We are black people and we shouldn't have to feel like this, we shouldn't have to protest but y'all are treating us wrong," she said. "We do this because we need to and we have rights."

People called for Mayor Roberts to step down multiple times.

Protesters told NBC Charlotte that they're very unhappy with how Mayor Jennifer Roberts and CMPD Chief Kerr Putney have handled both the investigation of Keith Lamont Scott's fatal police shooting as well as the subsequent protesting.

"We're making sure everybody's registered to vote here and we're going to get these people out of office," a participant said during Sunday night's protests.

"We need change and leadership and we need change today," he said.

During the meeting police accountability and training were questioned. Others demanded an independent investigation into Keith Scott's killing.

Meeting-goers said the protests will continue until change is seen.

The Mayor says she has spoke with the Department of Justice to monitor the investigation.

CMPD has continued to say that Keith Lamont Scott posed an imminent threat and failed to obey more than 10 commands to drop his gun.

Protesters beliefs from the shooting vary, but many see if differently than police, and during Monday night's city council meeting they voiced those concerns.
