Elle Moxley (formerly Elle Hearns, born 1986/1987) is an American transgender rights activist. She co-founded the Black Lives Matter Global Network, where she served as a strategic partner and organizing coordinator, and founded The Marsha P. Johnson Institute, where she served as the first executive director.

Moxley was born in Columbus, Ohio. She grew up in a single-parent home with two sisters. She struggled being raised as a "little black boy who was existentially trapped in a boy’s body, but was definitely very much so female." Before discovering that she was transgender, she thought she was gay, and dealt with suicidal thoughts as she thought being gay was a sin.

Moxley was very interested in black power, and educated herself about Malcolm X and the civil rights movement. She became a youth organizer, and later attended Central State University, a historically black university in Wilberforce, Ohio.

In 2013, Moxley co-founded the Black Lives Matter Global Network. As a strategic partner and organizing coordinator, she helped develop policy for the network, including the 2016 policy platform "A Vision for Black Lives". She co-organized a National Day of Action in 2015 to bring attention to the black trans women who were killed that year.

In 2015, Moxley was one of the organizers of The Movement for Black Lives, a national three-day conference in Cleveland, Ohio.

Moxley founded The Marsha P. Johnson Institute, where she served as the first executive director. The mission of the institute, which launched in 2019, is to train and support black trans women and gender-nonconforming femmes. In October 2025, Chastity Bowick was announced as the new executive director of the institute.

Moxley has also served as a coordinator for GetEQUAL and as an ambassador for the Trans Women of Color Collective (TWOCC). Her writings have been featured in publications including the City University of New York Law Review and Ebony.

Moxley directed and featured in the 2022 short documentary film Black Beauty.
