No amount of whitewashing is going to fix that. Almost half of them in-fact celebrate it.

Personally that feels like a slippery slope to me. I agree destroying history just because it has become distasteful is not a good solution. At the same time museum context is not always as good as it should be. It is often written by someone who doesn't have any personal experience.
