"Our current understanding" based on genetic testing. Something we didn't have in the time of our grandparents. It hasn't "always been this way." Opinions about this topic have changed dramatically over time.

Race was invented centuries before Darwin even considered that animals evolved from anything. Genetics doesn't factor into it at all. The Europeans believed peoples were formed wholly from God's will. They thought God made black people to be dominated by white people. That is to say, they made it all up without any hint of any adherence to truth.
