Self Love is Literal cultivates the experience of a newly 30-year-old navigating life. Brittany Briggs delves into the likes of her life as she compiles poems and corresponding letters to describe her experience. Take a stroll through memory lane with Brittany as she attempts to creatively explain her experiences with self-love, self-hate, and setting boundaries. Briggs channels Maya Angelou's spirit as she responds to "phenomenal woman" and then taps into Phillis Wheatley as she describes her experience of moving to the suburbs from the inner city.
