Yes White people can get Hemoglobin D. Especially those of Irish, English, Welsh and Scottish ancestry. The reason is because it came via India into the British population. It's believed that many British colonists whom were located in India took Indian wives. It was in this process that Hemoglobin D entered into the White population. Most White Americans of British descent don't suffer from it as they there links with India was none if any at all.
