A politically correct word that means that white privilege ought to take a back seat, although it is unlikely to happen as long as white racists and supremacists are allowed to roam the White House, the judiciary, the police, or the stock exchange.
Lots of white CEOs, governors, and mayors talk powerfully about diversity, but their walks seldom follow their talks.

Get the Diversionmug. Something White people hate and feel that every single black person who is in university or at a high paying job didn't earn that position. Even though they know little of that person's life.
What makes a society great but white people are afraid of it.

Get the diversitymug. 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.

Get the Diversity pimpmug. In a corporation, this is a person who was hired solely because of the color of their skin, or their sexual identity, as opposed to their actual skills or contributions to the company. This person is usually employed for reasons including company PR or lower government taxation.

Harry: "It was Terry, the diversity hire."
Jerry: "If we screwed up as much as he does, we'd be fired."
Harry: "Sadly, Terry is a homosexual black man, so HR won't touch him."

Get the Diversity hiremug. Have ever looked around your company and noticed how many team leaders and lower management tick diversity boxes? These people are diversity hires. All big corporations have quoters for diversity they need to meet and by hiring and promoting people who tick the right boxes the HR team can feel they are fighting for social justice
My new ream leader is a diversity hire. Totally useless but the company will cover for him as he's black and gay
