I thought diffrent races could not breed together and the such? So are Blacks and Whites diffrent sub-species or something?

we are all the same species - homo sapiens sapiens
race just refers to appearance really, there are certain genes that can affect it, just like eye color and blood type but that doesn't put any limitations on breeding.

Biologically, there is no such thing as race. Race is a culturally invented distinction with no biological meaning. People with different colored skin are all humans and are all the same species.

If you wanted to use the proper term, it would be breeds, but this seems vaguely rude when used to describe humans.

well, we're all of the same species because otherwise we couldn't interbreed.
