I have a user reporting an issue with unassigning themselves. Their report is below; they’re running Safari and Firefox and have issues with both.

### Description

On the “Assigned” screen (/u/username/activity/assigned), I see a list of topics I’ve been assigned to. However, when I try to “unassign” myself on this screen, nothing happens and the assignment is not removed (even after refreshing the page).

If I click into the individual topics and click “Unassign” at the bottom of those topics, the assignment is removed as expected, so I don’t think this is a permissions issue?

### How to reproduce

- You need at least one topic assigned to you.
- Click on profile badge in top right
- In the profile menu, click on “Assign List” nav button (Person icon with +)
- Click on “Down arrow” in the list to go to the link above (or directly navigate to link above)
- On an topic in the assignment list, click on “Unassign”

### Expected behavior

- The topic is removed from the assignment list
- The assignment is removed from the topic

### Actual behavior

- Nothing happens
