The Great American Road Trip Inspires Families To Experience Real, Patriotic America Together:

The series aims to inspire Americans to see America for themselves.

The long-awaited Great American Road Trip series — following Transportation Sec. Sean Duffy, his wife, and eight of their children as they travel the country together in honor of America 250 — was released on Wednesday. In an age where educators and politicians continue to prioritize divisive Marxist ideology over American history and society makes no effort to hide just how anti-family it has become, the series seems to be a much-needed breath of fresh, patriotic air.

The six-part series highlights the unique beauty of American landmarks and cities, including Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Boston, Fort Worth, and more. But the Duffys don’t just travel to their destinations. They also intentionally immerse themselves in the individual experiences there.

“While the Duffy family couldn’t go everywhere, we tried to select a wide range of destinations from all corners of the country to offer a snapshot of America’s remarkable diversity,” Great American Road Trip Executive Director Tori Barnes told The Federalist.

Ahead of its release, the nonprofit behind the series shared with The Federalist the first episode, in which the Duffys launch their first trip from Washington, D.C., and travel to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

After a send-off from President Trump at the White House, the family made their way to see the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall, as well as walk the historic streets of Philly.

Although the country offers its fair share of history lessons and classic museums, the series also shows the family sharing unique experiences with current-day Americans. In a later episode also shared with The Federalist, the family travels to Texas, where Sec. Duffy and his kids — despite a lack of musical coordination, as oldest daughter Evita Duffy-Alfonso admits — learn a line dance and enjoy farm life.

Civic Education Without America Hatred

In the first episode of the series, the Duffy kids hear about the founding and early years of the nation. On the family’s first historical stop to see the Liberty Bell, Sec. of the Interior Doug Burgum — who oversees the national parks throughout the country — discusses the first reading of the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia before the Revolutionary War was won. He emphasizes the courage of the signers and their commitment to independence under threat of treason. This honor for the founders was echoed at the Duffys’ next stop, Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776.

It’s no secret that years of encroaching cultural Marxism and DEI obsessions have seeped into governments and schools across the nation, hell-bent on diminishing and caveating the achievements of the founders. Such ideology has led to the production of anti-American propaganda and messaging across museums and national parks basically telling citizens to be ashamed of their home. Although the Trump administration has launched efforts to rid public institutions of this kind of rot, years of damage have already been done as countless children grew up absorbing it.

That’s what makes the simple presentation of American exceptionalism in this first episode of The Great American Road Trip refreshing. No scholarly debates, no in-the-weeds caveats, just the declaration that our founders were brave and we owe our way of life to them. Yes, it’s elementary information, but returning to the basics can cut through ideological noise.

Although the first episode of The Great American Road Trip does not explicitly mention the cultural and political debates surrounding anti-American messaging in museums and national parks, it emphasizes the historical locations themselves rather than the messaging that may or may not be there, and that focus arguably functions to counter radicalism. The point of the series is to inspire Americans to see America for themselves, and as Barnes noted in a statement, “Loving and celebrating America should be a nonpartisan pursuit.”
