Congratulations, @beanz, for your candidacy as witness :) I'm only just beginning to know you, but feel your heart is in the right place, the way you stand up for human rights and dignity. Sir Cork I know better and think very highly of! I wish you every success, as witness, in elevating Steemit's standards.
And, since you've been encouraging in the past, I thought you might enjoy this post, honoring an Egyptian movie icon, who represented a more cosmopolitan and inclusive time in my part of the world (and, perhaps, the world at large):

All the best, Yahia
She has a real tough heart, and a tougher backbone, @Yahialababidi :) Thank you for the kind appraisal! It's quite mutual!
Good to know, my friend. If she has your endorsement, she has mine :) Wishing you continued success with your noble work @sircork!
