Darwin meant that species ([[homo sapiens]] sapiens, [[banana]] trees, etc...) could develop different races within their species and if these races were for example separated by a new ocean or mountain ridge, these races would start to diverge until new species are formed, we usually define an animal species by animals that can interbreed and have fertile offspring, although there are exceptions and it seems there often are no real boundaries between species, they seem to overlap genetically, just as would be expected from evolution.
As for the whole "racists use evolution as an excuse" discussion: just because someone abuses a theory out of ignorance that theory doesn't become evil or untrue.
