Like I agree with your overall sentiment, no matter the case it was repugnant and racist and deserving of being fired, but directing that language at a black person does make it worse. Especially a young man who had difficult times in the lockerroom already. Aiming it at him clearly impacted Aliu for years, it made him rebel against Peters, cost him his spot on the team, likely affected his entire career. So in directing the language at Aliu he made (for lack of better word or expression) a tangible victim making an already foul act that much worse.
But it only changes it from being a vile disgusting act to an extremely vile disgusting act.
