When he conducts an experiment that goes awry and he becomes blue, furry, and fanged, he no longer looks like a person. However, his very essence, his mind, his capability for speech and all of his basic bodily functions are still the same as any other persons are. Moreover, McCoy maintains his humanity by continuing to work with Xavier to defeat the mutants led by Shaw who desire to kill humanity. In doing so, McCoy proves that regardless of how he looks, he still is contending for the side of humanity because up until the end of the movie, he looks like other people (for the most part). His dedication to the side of humanity in the face of adversity demonstrates that mutants who do not look like people still in fact is a person.

The example of Hank McCoy also proves that regular people can treat mutants that do not look like mutants in an equal manner.
Once McCoy inadvertently transformed himself into the blue-eyed Beast, he no longer physically resembled a human being. However, McCoy is still able to continue working for the government and keep his place in the X-Men. The fact that he flew the X-Men to the site of their final battle against Shaw readily demonstrates this point. From this knowledge, the viewer can infer that McCoy was able to keep his position with the government and continue to work with them in his capacity as a scientist, alongside regular human beings. The fact that McCoy has helped humanity also aids in the fact that regular people will respect him and treat him like an equal, especially at work.

X-Men: First Class grants a lot of hope for differences between mutant kind and humanity. As such, it presents a good deal of hope for working out differences between humans, such as those associated with race, gender and class.
