That just depends on the order of attributes you prefer to use to refer to a person.

For me gender or age would usually come first rather than race

Okay, that’s a fair point as to that comment not making it more sexist than racist, but not for it only being racist. I don’t see anything in the story pointing to race over sex.

I would argue that mentioning race at all is what makes it more of a racist thing.

Like, why say that woman was black at all then?

But it's all just semantics, it's a fake story that has both aspects in it, and it doesn't really matter if it's one or the other
