I'm from Waianae class of '98. College graduate and free lancer. You can do what every you want to do in life so long at you keep your priorities straight. Make use of the freebies that those who have come before have set up for you. Scholarships. Get that free ride to UH and leave everyone else in your dust. Awesome work girls! Stay strong!
Raised in Waianae and very proud. Now living in Las Vegas I looked back on all the bad things ive done and look at where I am in life now, im glad I was raised in the Waianae community even if here were a lot of drugs, homeless people (3/4 OF THEM NOT EVEN RAISED IN WAIANAE BTW), Its the people that been put thru the worst and living as a minoritie who makes real leaders and true champions in life. When shit hits the fan, people who struggled and been thru hard times knows how to deal with it
this is intense. we saw this in our english class at campbell and everybody was silent. every single kid in that class was impressed. you guys did an amazing job. your words are so powerful.
You're welcome America :) It's an awesome poem, Ui + Chandah. Haha, it was fun working with you guys. Thanks for pulling through with us. Y'all are the bomb.
These girls are right,i don't go waianae,i go to nanakuli but we are like part of waianae andi grew up here and they are so right,people just judge us without even knowing who we are,we more to what people say about us,SO MANY PEOPLE tht was from waianae hass MADE IT BIG!Trust&believer,they have.So to all the shit talkers tht like judge us&think you all tough shit well you ain't ,&girls way to speak your hawaiian roots!Because the people thts out there they don't know shit abt waianae,REPPiT!
I love this video !!(: And they're right no matter who screws up it'll be fine because they're not from Waianae but when they do come from Waianae we all look bad. We should ALL be treated the same no matter where we come from. And I'm from Waianae and you know what I haven't been in one fight nor have I slept with someone because I thought they "loved" me. I'm a 4.0 GPA student. I'm in honors classes, I play sports, I was raised on the westside and I'm glad to have been.
omg i love this video. And for the haters. Hasn't mama taught you," if you don't have anything nice to say,keep it to yourself? I guess not, because you guys have no respect, but it's okay. Jesus still loves you even with your negativity. WAIANAE SEARIDERS BABY
Eh All u haterz! U need Jesus in ur life. Lyk forealz. Hav sum respect cuz dis our aina n dis our ppl! U aint no betta den us. If u hate hawaiians so much den get ur okole off our land cuz u takin up space! Represent WAiANAE all da way babi!!!! U KNO!!
I'm from waianae well nanakuli but grew up in waianae and I hate that people out there just push us around just because someone's mistake we have some good people out here but you guys just think that waianae kids are dumb do drugs drink well just live here for a while and you will understand how waianae is
west side translations continued; 10: anger = west side virtue 11: ignorance = other west side virtue 12: round eye no need apply = west side racism 13:plate lunch = the same shit you've had for lunch for the pat 20 years (bbq spare ribs, potato or mac salad, rice.) 14:home = a cooler, tent, bbq, and the beach 15:haole, japanese and local = the only three races on the planet 16:mainland = any place except Hawaii 17:europe, africa, south america, australia = unknown places other than hawaii
I dint get why people are being so foul towards this video. Its a common good that they are showing towards waianae. Great job girls. Because in my point of view EVERYONE is different(; Mahalo nui loa
The bigger picture of this awesome poetry island ppls (u know for those who no get it apparently) We shouldn't judge ppl we don't actually know. Practically Everyone got hoes, gangsters, drug dealers, and wannabees at their school. But to make judgments on the whole populations of a certain area by the actions of a few individuals is stupid. In addition, we shouldn't be living a self fulfilled prophecy, but, strive to make our lives better despite where we live and our overall circumstances.
So this video has been online for 3 years and STILL gets hate? Smh. Some of the comments say, "We get no aloha" down here. Well, it doesn't seem like you got some aloha if you're gonna put down my hometown. Please, check yourself before you say something that will escalade into something bigger then what it already is. And you guys can message me what you think of this comment because honestly, I really want to correct your grammatical errors.
Wow, reading some of these comments... it's as if they don't understand the real meaning of this video. What makes YOU so insecure and hated that you need to make such arrogant comments? Bring the peace! Kill the stereotypes and hate!
people think the negative because thats the stereotype has been put out for years. you dont want them to think that? then start pushing everyone else to break free and be positive. aloha
i agree with those girls cuz people frum other places judge waianae cuz of stories they here which is not even true fuck them i am frum waianae born and raised and that will never change waianae gurl all da way dueces :)
@kalaikamalu -ooh i see but if had 2 beautiful girls then you would think that they was awesome right?? Well guess what it's not about looks it's about heart and inspirations. They speak with they're heart. Don't Judge on the book of its cover judge on whats in it......
take into consideration dat dis vid was made for a reason...i am from waianae nd outside of waianae wen u mention waianae dey think drugies nd homeless nd all da girls r sluts nd skanks-i am proud and i kno not to stereotype so all u haterz dat talk crap bout waianae-do u really kno us r u jus talkn kuz u tink itz "cool" and evrybodi else is. think about it!

-Im A Proud Hawaiian, So Proud That I Go To An Kula Olelo Hawaii! No Laila Mai Olelo I Na Mea Hewa E Pili Ana Waianae. No Waianae Mai Au A Pa'a Au I Ka Olelo A Me Ka Mana. So Don't Be Talking Shitt About Waianae. Talk Shitt About Where You And Your Dumbass Family Came From. Ola Mau Ka Olelo Hawaii Ea!
@MyNameISfockYou I'm a neutral party cuz I'm 25% hawaiian :/ but I have more white but still I see ur side and I agree but yea can't rly pick and choose sides when I have both...
@92bANGAh First of all, I didn't say anybody was ugly, you said that. Second, look at your writing skills. and Third your being the stereotype their talking about. Like I said, Action speaks louder than words! Peace
Cuzz you like rep your city but noo respect the pitty. 6ou should have never bin raised in waianae. This generation will bring back the power talking shit boy hope you ready for my generation.
lol... waianae. With their graduation rate so low, drugs in the area so high, and the anti american protests and amout of illegal activity they have down there, maybe people wouldn't be so sterotypical. Actions speak louder than words. Nice video though!
@MyNameISfockYou Well Hawaii is a part of the United States, and the racist comments and vulgar words are not needed. If you were educated and brought up right you'd know that.
How about if you live in Waianae, dare to be different! Use proper grammar, spelling, and vocabulary past an elementary school level! Carry yourself as decent, proper, prim, and dignified!
waianae is the mutufukin best. only the realest ppl. so all dem haters can kiss our asses and choke on their fuking words. this video is majah and true. so haters do wutchu do best and keep hating on the best.! WAIANAE!!!!
