This is NOT true...that is the OLD thinking. The politically correct thinking. "Humans" came out of Africa, mated with other "humans" who had left earlier, and became different species. Europeans mated mostly with Neanderthals and Asians with Denisovan too.

"The recent sequencing of the Neanderthal and Denisovan genomes shows possible admixture. A draft sequence publication by the Neanderthal Genome Project in May 2010 indicates some form of hybridization between archaic humans and modern humans took place after modern humans emerged from Africa. An estimated 1 to 4 percent of the DNA in Europeans and Asians (i.e. French, Chinese and Papua probands) is non-modern, and shared with ancient Neanderthal DNA and not with Sub-Saharan Africans (i.e., Yoruba and San probands),[41] while Melanesians have an additional 1–6% of Denisovan origin.[42]"

"Studies published in March 2016 suggest that modern humans bred with hominins, including Denisovans and Neanderthals, on multiple occasions.[46]"

They ARE a different species.
