Jack Barsky was one of the most highly trained KGB spies ever sent to America. Embedded under a stolen identity during the height of the Cold War, his mission was to blend in as a loyal American citizen—all while secretly serving the Soviet Union. Until he made the dangerous decision to stay in the country he was meant to undermine. Jack joins PragerU CEO Marissa Streit to reveal how he was recruited by the KGB, how communism shaped his worldview, and the surprising reason he turned his back on it all.
