To be able to see the world in a manner that is void of prejudice and bigotry. Able to accept someone not because they fit our standard of normal, but instead, just because they are. To be able to look at someone and let them define who they are rather than making a judgment based on preconceived notions and stereotypes of what society says they should be.
Connie set just such a standard, then challenged those around her to see things otherwise. She accepted a woman as someone who said they were a woman, the same for men. She surrounded herself with those she knew she could trust, those who had proven her trust wasn't misplaced. She in turn gained their trust by not judging on standards set by society.
Welcome to a world were things aren't always as they appear. Where acceptance is the rule rather then the exception. A place where people come first, and their differences don't matter. A place where a person is judged on their abilities, not their looks. Where skin color has no meaning. Religion is a personal choice, and shared only with those interested. A place where personal beliefs are never used to restrict someone, nor deprive them of their rights to express themselves in a manner comfortable to that person.
Prejudice has no place in this world and is never tolerated. Tolerance is the law everyone is expected to live by. Freedom of expression reigns supreme.
Welcome to the world of Connie Carlson, friend to the friendless, champion of the defenseless, icon of independence. Welcome to the world of freedom for all, where every person has the right to live their life in a way they feel is right for how they define themselves. A world where everyone has the same rights until they deny someone else of their rights.
