Textual evidence from the story "Everyday Use" in a paper that makes an academic argument about that story is A. Primary source textual evidence.

A primary source gives us immediate evidence related to a particular subject, event, individual or artistic work. In this case, the primary source is the textual evidence of the story (content which is part of the source text).

On the other hand, a secondary source process, construes, examines, depicts, summarizes the primary source and gives an opinion about it. Here, the paper that makes an academic argument about the story is the secondary source.
