He chronicles the difficulties and challenges he faced in his new book, "I Am Supposed To Be Here". The book is a powerful examination of how, as a young African American, he was racially profiled by law enforcement and government agencies, leading to an unjust arrest and incarceration. His conviction was overturned following a lengthy legal battle with the state of Texas. The release of "I Am Supposed To Be Here" comes as people around the United States are increasingly concerned at unfair profiling and targeting based on race and neighborhood. In his compelling narrative, Dr. Arnette speaks directly about negative perceptions and stereotypes in the hope his experiences will help others confronted with similar obstacles and challenges. He also mentors local youth and professional athletes. His mission for writing I Am Supposed To Be Here is threefold: To expand the perception of how young people identify success; to offer positive methods for dealing with those in authority; and to share effective practical concepts for overcoming personal adversity.
