We acknowledge that Forget The Box is physically located, and covers art and culture upon, unceded Indigenous lands. The Kanien’kehá:ka Nation is recognized as the custodians of the lands and waters on which we gather today. Tiohtià:ke/Montréal is historically known as a gathering place for many First Nations. Today, it is home to a diverse population of Indigenous and other peoples. We respect the continued connections with the past, present and future in our ongoing relationships with Indigenous and other peoples within the Montreal community.

Forget The Box (.net) was originally founded in 2009 by Jason C. McLean, Jerry Gabriel, Stephanie Laughlin, Chris Zacchia, and Laurence Tenenbaum. Conceived as "an independent media collective that strives to provide a forum for voices excluded from the mainstream media", Forget The Box (.net) closed in February 2023.
