If you do something educational, even something easy like dissembling and reassembling simple electronics, and get arrested for it. Then drum up enough media attention about it you might get invited. The key isn't being a particular race or religion, it's having teachers and officers dumb enough to completely overreact to something that is in no way a problem.

Hey- I built an (obviously) non-functional nuclear bomb for a class project in high school. I didn't get to meet any presidents. Of course, I also didn't get arrested, suspended, expelled, or overly politicized.
