Explanation:

- The given word is consign, which means to put something somewhere, especially in order to be rid of it or to assign it to a particular place or category.

- Option 1: Announce - Means to make a public statement about something. This doesn't replace "consign."

- Option 2: Circulate - Means to move around within a system or area. This is not a synonym for "consign."

- Option 3: Indicate - Means to point out or suggest something. This isn’t a good replacement.

- Option 4: Assign - Means to allocate or designate a role, task, or place to a person or thing. It can be a substitute for "consign" in the context of assigning something to a category.

In this context, Option 4: Assign can replace "consign" when considering assigning colonialism to a category of outdated concepts.
