Putting aside the "White people tip-toeing the line of saying the n-word" vibes: Not sure how I feel at the casual implication that different races are analogous to different species... we could just as easily treat different races as different colors of fur.
Races in fiction are usually different species or breeds (as in dog breeds, I guess, not sure if that's the right term), not different skin colors. Like how humans have different skin colors but are all Homo sapiens still, so part of the same human race.
