Campos-duffy adds her own background as a first-generation American, with grandparents who immigrated from Mexico and parents connected to Arizona and Spain.<\/p>\n<p>She argues that patriotism can be as simple as loving one\u2019s country because it is \u201cgood,\u201d and she credits opportunities for unity to respectful, in-person conversations-starting at the dinner table-and to shared community traditions. She suggests that, as the country nears its 250th anniversary, the most crucial \u201cevent\u201d may be what happens in everyday family life: Friday Night Lights, family barbecues, and similar traditions that bring people together.<\/p>\n<p>*All American Patriotism* is scheduled to be released May 19.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/fox-news\/\">Fox News\u2019s<\/a> <em>Fox &#038;
