Does anyone know who owned the slave ships?

Question:There is a way to learn of the names of the ships and the owners. The yarmulke people don't want darky to know this one. Also the ones that owned the slave ships were also the primary owners of the plantations in South America. I bet not many knew that South America had many times more slaves delivered to South America than North America?

The British and Dutch owned the most slave ships. The US was third.
