If you are using ASP.NET Identity 2, you have to add some codes to AccountContoller. Add an ActionResult to get UserList. You also nedd ApplicationDbContext instance and get it from OwinContext :

public class AccountController : Controller
{
    private ApplicationUserManager _userManager;
    private ApplicationSignInManager _signInManager;

    public AccountController(ApplicationUserManager userManager, ApplicationSignInManager signInManager)
    {
        UserManager = userManager;
        SignInManager = signInManager;
    }

    public ActionResult UserList()
    {
        var applicationDbContext = HttpContext.GetOwinContext().Get();
        var users = from u in applicationDbContext.Users
                    from ur in u.Roles
                    join r in ApplicationDbContext.Roles on ur.RoleId equals r.Id
                    select new
                    {
                        u.Id,
                        Name = u.UserName,
                        Role = r.Name,
                    };

            // users is anonymous type, map it to a Model 
            return View(users);
    }
    .
    .
    .
}

Update - if user has multiple roles:

from user in applicationDbContext.Users
select new
{
    user.Id,
    user.UserName,
    Roles = applicationDbContext.Roles.Where(r => user.Roles.Select(ur => ur.RoleId).Contains(r.Id)).Select(r => r.Name)
}
