Diversity pimp
Like the poverty pimps who pimped the poor for their own enrichment through bogus social programs, diversity pimps are high priced consultants who make money from foundations and governnment for conducting pointless "diversity audits" or research on diversity, presenting "diversity training" . . . using up any money that might actually have gone towards helping communities of color or other identified populations.
An example of a diversity pimp is a consultant who conducts "diversity audits" for companies, foundations or universities, or a diversity consultant who facilitates "diversity conversations" or does diversity training.

Diversity Washing
A term used to describe the process of including diversity for the sake of pushing diverse agenda, or where it does not fit. This is very similar to white washing, but usually does the opposite. It most commonly applies to film adaptations of books, who race or gender swap characters to ensure the film cast is diverse, in places where the book or story characters were not. It also applied to historical adaptations in which a character (usually white) from history is portrayed as being some other race than they actually where historically. Can apply to film, video game, comic book, plays, books or any other form of media.
