Requests giving errors while importing Python 3.4.2

When I am trying to import requests in python 3.4.2, it gives me the following errors:

Python 3.4.2 (v3.4.2:ab2c023a9432, Oct  5 2014, 20:42:22)

ImportError: No module named 'email.parser'; 'email' is not a package

I am not trying to use any files like email.parser, yet it shows an error. How can I fix this? I have tried to install requests again, for instance, with sudo pip3.4 install requests and sudo pip3.4 install --upgrade requests. Note: I am running macOS Sierra.

You have a local file called email.py which is shadowing the standard library module. Rename your file.
