I find your sentiment somewhat tossed-off, implying as it does that we "regularly ignore" things like Japanese-American internment camps, when in fact we teach them to elementary school children as national disgraces we hope never to repeat.

That is not a component of all curricula in the country. And the idea of a "registry" is a modern day touchy thing.
