Nobody does. Everybody that would have remembered it is long dead by now.

I don't remember the Laramie treaty but I do remember what happened at Wounded Knee, the Trail of Tears, and Sand Creek Massacre (whose Native Americans weren't doing anything wrong but were massacred just the same). We even had a treaty to leave the Black Hills to the Native Americans until people discovered gold there. While there have been a couple of times when those agreements were honored, most of the time those agreements were totally trashed as soon as someone discovered that they could get rich from violating them and get the government to protect them.
