For example, a musician is judged by their ability to perform music, the essence of being a musician.

-====Oppression is anti-flourishing because it's the denial of an individual's freedom to pursue their essence. In terms of Eudiamonian ethics, individual acts are not relevant, instead, it focuses on how fundamental social arrangements such as class relations either promotes, or oppresses an individual's ability to flourish. Indeed, the historical production of resources has been fundamentally capitalist and has created a system of class relations to entrench the interests of the powerful by which creating a false consciousness that sustains oppression by giving it the means to justify itself.
