"It is time for NAACP membership, all Americans and all groups committed to civil rights to stop giving Adams Mark their money and business. It is time now to give them hell. Don't plan conventions there. Don't plan regional meetings there. Don't plan banquets there, and don't check in there," Mfume said.

This is from the NAACPs CEO. I read nothing about cancelling existing bookings at all cost, only not to make them from now on.

The FA has written a letter to the NAACP. Why not just wait about two weeks for an answer which could be anything from "cancel at any costs" to "go on as planned, but stop further business" or "go an as planned for now but be ready for a cancellation if there is no sufficient reaction from Adams mark".
