Charles Bradlaugh... Claiming the Right to Make the Affirmation of Allegiance... 1880, (1901)
Charles Bradlaugh, at the Bar of the House of Commons, Claiming the Right to Make the Affirmation of Allegiance instead of taking the Oath, 1880, (1901). British free-thinker, political activist, atheist and social reformer Charles Bradlaugh (1833-1891) was elected MP for Northampton in 1880, but refused to take the oath as he was not a Christian, and was expelled from Parliament. He was re-elected and continued to be rejected until 1886 when he finally took the oath. Having taken up his seat, Bradlaugh spoke in favour of Irish Home Rule and land redistribution. He founded the National Secular Society in 1866. From " The Illustrated London News Record of the Glorious Reign of Queen Victoria 1837-1901: The Life and Accession of King Edward VII. and the Life of Queen Alexandra". [London, 1901]

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment when Charles Bradlaugh, a British free-thinker and political activist, claimed his right to make the affirmation of allegiance instead of taking the oath in 1880. As an atheist and social reformer, Bradlaugh faced immense opposition due to his refusal to adhere to Christian beliefs. Elected as MP for Northampton, he was expelled from Parliament multiple times before finally being allowed to take the oath in 1886. In this image, we see Bradlaugh standing at the Bar of the House of Commons, resolute and determined. His unwavering commitment to his principles is evident on his face as he fights for human rights and freedom of belief. The black-and-white composition adds a sense of gravity and seriousness to this significant moment in history. Bradlaugh's influence extended beyond religious matters; he advocated for Irish Home Rule and land redistribution during his time in Parliament. A true statesman with strong convictions, he founded the National Secular Society in 1866. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of Bradlaugh's struggle against societal norms and discrimination based on religious beliefs. It encapsulates both his personal journey as well as larger themes such as activism, politics, secularism, and social reform that continue to resonate today.
