Facebook Group and Twitter Feed Starts for Oaklanders to Save Parkway Theater

As SFist reported yesterday, a sad press release went out from the owners of the Parkway Speakeasy Theater in Oakland saying that they would be closing their doors after Sunday's screenings. A Facebook group has now started to raise support to save the theater, and an Oakland activist is lobbying to get the City of Oakland to step in with some emergency business retention funds. Whether or not the beloved beer-and-couches cinema can be saved, supporters are planning a nearby gathering on Sunday, and you can hear everyone mourn and rally on Twitter.
