I'm sure someone with more scientific knowledge and vocabulary than myself will give you a detailed explanation, but in the meantime... I give you my layman's understanding of it.

The word is 'speciation'. Evolution is still at work, but geographical distance and cultural differences have caused it to go in several different directions. That's why there are black people, white people, asian people, hispanic people... etc. The 'races' of humanity.
