Although people throughout history have striven to overturn oppression, their desire to be free should not be seen as defining their essential humanity. After all, even the lowliest of prisoner who has little freedom is still a human being. Likewise, a baby who cannot alter very much in the world under their own will is also still a member of humanity. That said, some of the fundamental human rights that have been set out by institutions like the United Nations have referred to such rights as 'freedoms'. Examples of this are the freedom from want or freedom of expression.
