Races are a temporary evolutionary phenomenon based upon pre-historic geographical isolation. Now that geographical isolation has been eliminated, the trend will be back to a single more homogeneous race. Ten thousand years from now there be no distinctive races.

This assumes that there will be constant intermarriage, or at least inter-group breeding, among all presently-existing races. Will this be true for the pygmis, for example? Maybe not. There could be groups that may continue to be genetically isolated. We don't really know.

Absolutely correct, unless geographically isolated bands of humans exist for a few thousand years by then.
