I don't see any reason why recent human evolution would have slowed down. One of the striking instances of recent human evolution was detected some years ago. It is the ability to digest milk in adulthood, conferred by genetic changes that occurred only 3,000 (?) years ago.
The mutation arose in a central European region, where an early cattle-raising culture flourished only 6,000 years ago. The further one lives from that area, the smaller the chance to be lactose-tolerant.
