- 1Plural of injustice.
The commission documented decades of injustices against the community.

Note
Only the countable use can take this plural. Injustice as an abstraction, as in a world full of injustice, has no plural. Once the wrongs become separate acts or conditions that can be listed, named and redressed, the count noun appears: historical injustices, the injustices done to a people. Choosing between the two forms means choosing between a condition and a catalog of its instances.
