Note
A plural that only makes sense once freeing is counted as an event: the liberation of a camp, a city, a colony, each one separate. The broad idea of equal rights and freedom from oppression usually stays singular. The ironic, euphemistic use for conquest or theft pluralizes too, so 'liberations' of someone's property usually means things taken, and context or scare quotes signal which sense is meant.
