NO! All landlords in the US must give you 24 hrs notice ( some states even require 48 hrs) before entering any rented space. The only time they can go in with out 24 hrs notice is in case of emergency or to fulfill a repair request.
When you ask for something to be fixed you legally waive the 24 hrs notice. They are allowed to go in as soon as they can after the request. Once 24 hr notice has been given you do not have to agree to it or be there.
A phone message is legal in most states.
With 24 hours notice they can enter to do maintenance, repair or inspection.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
