71: Olaf Kuhlke - Cultural Entrepreneurship "We have to come to terms with our uncomfortable past and it shouldn't be a burden to discuss this. It shouldn't be something that drives people to protest at school boards but it should be something that is you know actively integrated into school curriculum." This weeks survival of the kind of podcast features Olaf Kuhlke. Olaf was brought up in Germany and studied cultural geography. He went on to study higher degrees in Canada and the United States. He is an associate professor in the department of geography and philosophy at the University of Minnesota Duluth. Olaf's career Took an interesting turn after a visit to remote communities in northern Canada.   As a cultural geographer, he has written about international migration, large-scale dance festivals and their place in national and local discourse, the representation of national identity in Canadian popular music, the global diffusion of dance practices, and the places of Freemasonry in the United States. Most recently, he has been a passionate advocate for the establishment of cultural entrepreneurship as an academic discipline and practice, and have written about the theoretical foundations of this new form of entrepreneurship emerging out of the liberal arts.
