cannot import name 'ssl' from '_ssl'

When I try to execute the following code, I got the following error message. Any suggestions on how to address it?

Code:
from briefly import *
from briefly.common import *

Error message:
ImportError: cannot import name 'ssl' from '_ssl'

Start by reproducing the two imports shown in the issue and inspect how briefly and briefly.common reach Python's _ssl module. Confirm the runtime and package combination that triggers the ImportError, then verify that the imports complete successfully without the error.
