Hawaiian Pidgin English - Fun Language or Uneducated Slang?

Hawaiian Pidgin, or Hawaiian Creole, is a very unique and special part of Hawaii's culture. Originating back in the old plantation days, Hawaiian Pidgin is a language that locals speak today.

I wanted to talk about the perceived negatives of using Pidgin in Hawaii, as well as some of the benefits of this unique language.
