Well I think that there are two kinds of freedom, "negative freedom", and "positive freedom."
First off, by "negative" I don't mean "bad" I mean, freedom that comes from an absence of something that denies your freedom as in freedom from something. This is what I mean by freedom from oppression: I mean the freedom from being oppressed.
By "positive" I also don't mean "good", because I consider both kinds of freedom good. I mean freedom to do something as opposed to "negative freedom" as described above. This is all about self-expression which I consider self-explanatory. For a little more info on that I suggest learning about Abraham Maslow's concept of self-actualization.
