Oh! Now I understand why my English teacher was a total fascist when it came to those kinds of pronunciations! Pen-guin got us a fair few times. Neat. She was just extra racist.
It's not even a race thing really, regional dialects exist across skin color.

As long as you didnt pronounce it ping wings I think youre okay
