CHARLOTTE, N.C. In less than a week, the city of Charlotte saw four homicides and multiple shootings reported nearly every day. The 100 Black Men of Greater Charlotte say this is the type of gun violence they want to put an end to with the help of the community.
Thursday night the organization hosted the first of three community panel discussions to seek solutions to the gun violence. The shared goal was to get everyone involved and address the violence as a public health issue.
